Game lagging and slow performance of pc.Suggestion about a gaming rig?

Again, it all depends how much you overclock it. Yes I know, merely if he wants to do it or not. The i5-2500k runs great without overclocking.

So you mean i5 2500 need to overclock for better performances?
Well, is nothing to do with the advance technologies?
Like what Keiichi25 said, I should get the i5 2500 because I don't know what I'm doing with the overclocking. And I don't want to get the risk of damage to the processor.
Anyway, overclocking can be done by other people rather than doing it by our own right?

Nononono, you don't NEED to overclock it. The i5-2500 is great as it is. Only if you want to get more out of it, you overclock it. Just because you get the i5-2500k, doesn't mean you have to overclock it, only the option of doing so is there. If you don't know what you are doing with overclocking, don't do it. Yes, another person can overclock it for you, if you wish, but only the i5-2500k, not the i5-2500. Again, the i5-2500 and i5-2500k are exactly the same, except the fact that the i5-2500k has its multipliers unlocked, to overclock.

Thanks for the info mate :)
I think I will get the i5-2500. Is enough for me.
For better performance, I need to change a graphic card and power supply isn't it?

Sorry, not going to go through this entire thread to look at what you have for a Graphics Card or power Supply...

I will say this, however...

If your Power supply is <500 Watts... and your card was working fine... Don't worry about it.

If you are thinking of getting a newer card (which MIGHT improve your FPS, but only really consider it if you NEED drastic improvement, like above 25 FPS) and the power supply is <500 watts, you should make sure your power supply is at least 500W or better, as newer cards are requiring a minimum power supply allowance.

And as Slash pointed out, you don't need to overclock it. He pointed out that the i5-2600k is unlocked so you can overclock if you wanted to. I only cautioned that if you are planning on it and you don't know how to do it, you should research first before trying. The i5-2600 is locked so you can't try and do that, but it should be fine for what you want to do in general.

Again, Overclocking isn't a must. It is generally for those who like to 'tweak' their system to get more out of it. How much more will vary depending on the user's wants, but the important thing as a person who has never done it, do not expect the returns to be 'leaps and bounds'.

Well I have a 500+ watts power supply.
I get your point about the overclocking, so I think that I will just take the i5 2500. It will be enough for me. I have a NVIDIA GeForce 9500GT, so with a i5 2500k, I will be still at least able to play new game without lag right ?(Not in high settings, just normal or maybe lower).
Anyway, the motherboard (Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H) is better and cheaper compare to the Asus P8H67-M LE or Asus P8H67-M LE is better and has the same price range?
Give me a suggestion on these two motherboard and which one I should pick, or suggest me one motherboard that is the price around this range..
Thanks for your suggestion and comment. :)

Mual, what games do you want to play, and at what resolution? The Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H is good, but is a bit expensive, try looking for something else if you don't want to pay that much.

Sorry for the late reply, having tuition just now.
Well Assassins Creed Brotherhood, Dues Ex Human Revolution, Call Of Duty Black Ops, Red Fraction Armageddon, Gothic 4, Crysis 2, Two Worlds 2, Dungeon Siege 3, F.E.A.R 3, Fable 3, Hunted The Demon Forge, Operation Flashpoint red River, NFS Hot Pursuit, Shift 2 Unleashed, Shogun 2, Dead Rising 2, Brink etc...

So I just get the Asus P8H67-M LE? is okay too right?
For all the above games, I think I want to play on 1280x1024 resolution, which is the max resolution for my monitor. I don't mind if the graphic have to set to normal or low.
