As others have said go for the 3570k, or the 4670k if you fancy Haswell instead, both will be more than adequate for gaming. 16GB RAM is overkill for gaming too, 8GB is plenty and you can easily upgrade in the future which would probably be a better way with RAM prices being what they are at the moment. An SSD isn't essential either, I'd go for a Caviar Black 2TB HDD, that will give you more cash to throw at the GPU.
