yeah, well, thing is,
the i5-2500 (locked) has limited overclock ability
which means you can only increase the turbo multiplier by 4x on P67 chipsets (total of 37x).
But with the i5-2500K (unlocked) you can increase the turbo multiplier to 57x on P67 chipsets.
For overclockers it's much better to just get the K version.
