the 2600k has an unlocked multiplier while the 2600 does not, the 2600 can be overlocked to around 5.01 ghz but the results for the 2600k are higher.
for the cost difference the 2600k is worthwhile if overclocking is your thing, if not then the standard 2600 is just fine. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number me

According to the link, the 2600 DOES have the features; the K model does NOT. It seems that the i5-2500K and the i7-2600K doesn't have those options.
Apparently Intel had to make some trade-offs to unlock the processors as well as give them both
the higher HD 3000 graphics. http://ark.intel.com/Compare.aspx?id...14,52210,52209,
