I'm pretty new to OCing and Core Unlocking and since i've got some money and I thought I should buy all of this,

-http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=24068827

I'll start with the Sempron, get used to everything, and i'll end of with the 3570k.

With everything (S&H was checked) it will be $1600

I just wanted to ask if this would be a stupid idea and a waste of money.

So what do you all think?

Overclocking is so completely different with the Sandy Bridge/Ivy Bridge K series that you'd be wasting your time anyway.

And at this point, it doesn't look like there are going to be any more CPUs with unlockable extra cores for the foreseeable future. At least not as far as ones you'd want to use for gaming. So that's likely lost most of its usefulness too.
