Upgrading from an i5 3570k to an i7 3770k is a pointless waste of money.

Not when Microcenter has it for 229.99... I mean really...
When something is absolutely that cheap (and rumored to be at MSRP level) you get it because you don't know when a cpu like that may come in handy.

$229.99 for a 3770k!?!? I paid $320 for mine. $230 looks suspicious though.

Just went to microcenter's website. $230 is a steal I'd get it

Exactly! TigerDirect won't even go that low if you ask them, leading me to believe they're selling it the lowest it can possibly go. It's so cheap, too bad you can't buy it online though. I have to go home this weekend from college to get it.
