The unlocked i5s would be the best bank for your buck here. A 4690K is ~$230ish, and should produce near to what the i7s with their HT enabled hash rates would.

That's a stupid idea, CPUs take more power than profit gained...
You can find some stats about CPU hashrate here: https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison#AMD
I'm also wondering why you would use a CPU mining rig nowadays or even still want to buy one.

GPU mining days.
Why would you go back to CPU mining?
I am about to build 4-6 CPU rigs with stuff i have laying around since my GPU mining days.
I have alot of Asrock H81-Pro boards sitting in alu frames.
So. I am about to buy some Intel socket 1150 cpu:s now.
What cpu is the best bang for the buck here ? I5 or I7 ?
I would need some inputs here.
