470 is awefully high for the 6700k.... I think MSRP is around 325 or 350. When they first came out they were in short supply and vendors were jacking up the price anywhere from 500-5000+ dollars.

 

I had parts sitting for a second build for a couple weeks until I got lucky and got another for a reasonable price.

 

Not sure what the situation is now, but it may be similar. I guess it could be where you are, but 270 seems sane for the 6600k....

 

For gaming I'd push for the i7 if it were a matter of 50 bucks. 200 is pushing it though; look around to see if you can get a better deal.

 

Edit: quick search suggests they'll remain in short supply for awhile yet. See if you can't sign up for notice when Amazon (themselves, not other vendors) gets some in stock. That's one place I got them at the proper price; they sold out in hours if not minutes and may well still, so yoj'll have to act quick.

i5 6600K with a good cooler if you can overclock to 4.4-4.6Ghz. Hyper-threading is useless for gaming.

The extra 2MB cache is not worth the extra spending. At the same speed they will perform similar for gaming.

Never buy i7's, not worth it for gaming. Overclock an i5 instead.

True. Get the best i5 and invest the extra hundred of dollars in a better graphics card. This is the best setup for gaming
