IMO. Unless there is a specific need for triple channel memory then forget about 1366. If you want a budget build that you will OC then grab a cheap 1156 i3. Other then those 2 scenarios 1155 is for you. If you plan on OCing then the only real choice is an i5 2500k. If you will not OC then pick between the i3 2100 and i5 2400 depending on budget. Hope my opinion helps.
