i5 2500k (4.7Ghz) vs i5 6600k (3.9Ghz). Looks like Sandy is still up there but difference in ipc is starting to show, maybe even worth an upgrade if you planing an high overclock on Skylake. All in all, is it stock 6600k enough for gaming this days? I would say yes.

Too pricey, i got i7 2600 for 100$, so no, thanks, still it's nice to have little speed boost.

I wasn't being inconsistent I just quoted the wrong section.
Haswell being Tock.

I wasn't being inconsistent I just quoted the wrong section.
22 nm product yet based on a FinFET process that uses a non-planar transistor that sits around the gate on three sides. Built using a 22 nm process, Haswell is the "tick" in Intel's "tick-tock" development cycle, so Ivy Bridge was just a process size shrink from Sandy Bridge's 32 nm to 22 nm.
