i5 2400 vs i5 2500k

[comp@ddict]

THe i5 2400/H61 combo suffices completely for gaming don't worry. SB CPUs are very good at this

FOr the GPU, I suggest:

Sapphire HD6870 1GB VAPOR-X @ 12k

II'm not sure but most probably H61 boards don't support Intel's Quick Sync, you might wanna take a look and see if you may need/use that feature cuz it's very good and only AFAIK, H67 and Z68 based mobo's support it.

No point in getting a 6870 when 560ti is avail for 0.5K extra..

I dunno if I can believe that price as I havn't seen it anywhere else.

Hey comp@ddict, so good to see you active in hardware section after a long time. When I joined this forum at 2009, you are kinda inspiration to me and I used to think you as an old wise owl type of guy.
