I was recommended to buy the tray i5 2500k http://www3.hardwareversand.de/articledetail.jsp?aid=43193&agid=1617 With this http://www3.hardwareversand.de/articledetail.jsp?aid=49134&agid=669 But was wondering if it would make any difference if I just went with this…

The first bit is better; much more efficient CPU cooler; better for overclocking.
