Guide is from someone at XS, probably more of a guide for finding the max frequency in as short a time as possible. I still don't feel extreme enough to post much over there..

In gaming with a good graphics card, you probably wouldn't notice a difference between any of them (i5 750 / i5 2500k / i7 950).

1366 socket > 1155 or 1156 for gaming. The extra PCI lanes and triple channel memory provide a small benefit. Specifically FOR gaming. Remember, the 1366 is an enthusiast's socket designed specifically for gaming and high end applications.

1155/1156 are designed for mainstream audiences.
Well as of right now I have a E6420 thats about 4 years old at 2.1GHz, so both are a major upgrade. Im just curious which one will be faster at the moment. As of right now it also looks like a 2500K setup will cost less as well, so thats another reason to switch over.
