Err...which i7 is $225?
Sandy bridge i5 2500k usually beats any previous i7 except the brand new Sandy bridge one (2600k) ... when it comes to gaming at least. Just cause its i7 doesn't mean its best. You have to look at which chipset its using. 1155 is the one you want.
Here is a nice comparison. i5 even beats the new i7 on some games.
