P55 chipsets and the 1156 socket fits the "old" i5 and some i7's, while the P67 chipset and 1155 socket fits the new Sandy Bridge i5s and i7s.

You need to decide which processor before you decide which chipset.

The i5-2500K is currently rated as the best for gamers because of its overclocking ability.
