research whatever programs you plan on using to see if they use hyper-threading
i.e., google "does ________________ use hyperthreading?"

i'm pretty sure i read somewhere that haswell is crap for overclocking, and sandy bridge or ivy bridge will outperform haswell when overclocked and cooled correctly

I would prefer something that doesn't need overclocking since it's super new and already super fast and already runs everything you throw at it for the next five years so it wouldn't really matter since if by then I'm still poor it'll only be because I"m dead

that's your choice then; i personally would get a cheap i5 sandy bridge and use the money saved to cool it and overclock the fuck out of it

the i7 is technically superior, if the software being used can take advantage of it; if it can't however, there is a small dent in performance
