I am basically building a new computer, and am considering these two processors. I don't know much about the 860, but like the sound of the i5. I know the i5 doesn't have HyperThreading, but that is the only difference I know about lol. Which of these is better? Or should I go to the LGA 1366 socket and get a better i7?

Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 ...
Motherboard: MSI P55-GD80 LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel Motherbo...
