Upgrade: from i5 2500k to i7 2600k, is it worth it?

Question

Iron

Good afternoon. Here is an opportunity to upgrade inexpensively from the i5 2500k to the i7 2600k.
At the same time, productivity will increase by about 10%, is it worth taking such a step?
Or maybe there are alternatives in this case?
upd: My computer plays the role of a work station: working with graphics, rendering, photoshop, sometimes there are problems and the need for performance. I rarely play games.

For your tasks, HT is quite appropriate and gives more than 10%, quite even 20-30%. For the price, it's an interesting option.
The alternative is 3770k, the platform is the same, the maximum bios can be updated, this one is a bit faster.

Answer 2

if you rest against the brakes in percent, then it’s worth it,
but if it’s in a hard drive or memory, then it’s not worth it,
I hope you already have an ssd and at least 16 gigs of memory?
if not, start the update with them
