to me its a no contest. the 3770k. the price of the 2600k is $320 on newegg where as the 3770k is $259 at my local microcenter. they don't carry the 2600k but can substitute a 2700k for $219. for the $40 its worth getting the better processor.

I'm starting to think this is similar to the AMD CPU polls, not based on any actual merit, but simply picking CPU's that are selling less to push the old stock. As a lot of people opted for i5's over i7's (2500k's over 2600k's) they likely have a decent stock of 2600k's. I dunno, I can't think of another reason for these CPU polls to be so lacking in range...

out of these choices the 3770k, but I really don't see that as better value than a 2500k
