Neither, get an i5-3570K. FX CPUs suck and LGA 2011 is not practical. For gaming it's pointless.

You'll have to change your motherboard, too. What are your current specs?

No, get a 2500k and a NH-D14 and achieve 5GHz.

My friend with a 2500K said he would OC. Runs it at stock with a D14. Seems plenty of people say they'll overclock, but don't.

3570K is $8 cheaper with that board and has the new Ivy Bridge features for what they're worth.
