Wich Xeon should i buy?

Strom

I mainly play on my PC but also stream, do video editing and 3D rendering. Wich one of these xeons is the best choice? Please don't say that get an i7 5820k and oc. So choices are E5-2650 v3 for 280€, E5-2676 v3 for 320€, E5-2670 v3 for 360€, E5-2683 v3 for 370€ or E5-2667 v3 for 400€? My absolute max budget is 400€ but i would like to go under 350€. My main requirement is good gaming experience. BTW my gpu is R9 Fury. I can't find much gaming benchmark scores for these CPU:s so if you know any (not game debate) tell me. (:

I'm Linus too. (:

E3 1231v3 is best value

Else, look for highest possible clockspeeds for single core performance.

Dude, get the E5-2560, it is the most that you need!

There is no option for E5-2650 nor E5-2660 v3 (that i would buy over any of these)

Then just buy the E3 1231 V3

Or what I have e3 1245 v3

Quad core with HT is not enough for me because i multitask a lot. Also i need 40 PCIE lanes because i'll get two more furys in future and i also use pcie wifi. I need min. 6 core with HT but best is 8 and above.
