was either thinking i5 2500k and a gigabyte z68 ud3 or get another gtx5660ti

you just said it plays your games fine, and that diablo 3 doesnt have much requirements. Do as sosofm said and save your money. Wait till your computer is not able to run games like you want and just build another one, or at least you'll have more money for a better upgrade

Wait a little for Ivy Bridge release to see the prices and perfomances. Maybe some price will drop and you can buy cheaper.
