4930K is getting outclassed by current gen Devil's Canyon Haswell in few applications... in 2 years time... we will be looking at X99 refresh CPU, Broadwell-E, Skylake.... 4930K is already an old technology... in 2 years time... it will be almost obsolete. You will not get the performance you deserve for spending any amount of many on an LGA2011 PC. Please drop this idea immediately.

No... I'm sorry but no. Don't. It won't be worth it. You're better off buying a new machine with new parts then.

Normandy - Intel Core i5 3470, 8 GB Corsair Vengenace LP, EVGA GTX 960 SSC, Gigabyte GA-Z77M-D3H-MVP, WD Blue 1 TB, Seagate 320 GB (steam), Seagate 320 GB (experimental, second OS, etc), Windows 8.1 + Ubuntu 14.10

Garrus - HP Stream 11

Please tell me you're kidding...

 

Why plan 2 years in advance, just save your money till then, and think about it when you're planning on buying it...
