You made a good purchase. The main difference b/n the 2500k and 2600k is the L3 cache and stock clock speed, obviously the 2600k has more but I think you'd be hard pressed to notice a difference on screen.

Re: Can you elaborate on your overclocking comment? Not sure what you mean because I think all socket 1155 CPUs have on-board graphics.
