Actually, I don't have so much money to buy the i7.
If considering the price, I should buy i5 2500k or the i7 2600k?
Which one is more worth it?

Well, I think you should go with the i5 2500k, its more than perfect for your needs, and if you need more power, you could simply over-clock it, as it has an unlocked multiplier. If the i5 2500k is too much powerful for your needs, you can buy an AMD, which is cheaper, but you will get less processing power.
Of course, when I change to i5-2500k, I will also need to change new motherboard because I have an old one....
So is should be okay?
Yes, you will definitely need to buy a new motherboard to support your processor. Also, some other components in your existing system might not be compatible with your new motherboard.
