Your money would be better spent bumping up the video card, not the processor, if you are building a gaming machine. There is very little real world difference in computing power between the 3350P and 3570K, and the internal graphics is disabled in the 3350P, keeping the price down a bit. HOWEVER: Do you have a Microcenter anywhere near you? If so, you can get an i7-3770K for $230 plus tax, which is $100 less than everywhere else. THAT is a worthwhile upgrade at that price for general computing tasks.
Get the 1TB drive, it's only $10 more than a 500gb.
