If you go 2011,the only cpu that's worth it is the 4930k PERIOD!

4820k is a waste of motherboard money. Get the 4770k.(why not 4790k?)

[Enderman]

First of all, are you doing 3d rendering and video editing?

If not, buy a 4690k.

If yes, but a 4790k.

A 4790k/4690k will outperform a 4820k.

^^ this

 

but if you do need 6 cores 12 treads

 

then pick the 4930K with the LGA2011 board minimum

[CowsGoRoar]

4820K is even worse than the 4770K.

 

LGA 2011 = i7 4930K

LGA 1150 = i7 4770/90K if you don't use multi-threaded software than i5 4690K.

[i_build_nanosuits]

Should be noted that the core i7 hyper-threading come's in handy in modern CPU intensive games that use more threads from the CPU such as watch dogs, as tested by myself

BUT be aware that so far the total of games that makes good use of hyper-threading (and you need an high-end GPU to see any difference in games) totals to about 2 games wich are crysis 3 multiplayer and watchdogs There should be A LOT more games that will fit this pattern in the future though...

Also i agree with the others the 4820K is a CPu that should no exist, go with a 4770K or the 4790K if you aim for high overclocks.

Personally I prefer the 4820K over the 4770K, just for the preinstalled backplate S2011 has which is amazing and it's soldered so it runs cooler. But honestly looking from a performance standpoint;

The 4770K will do much better if there's avx2 support (ivy bridge doesnt have it) and the l1 cache bandwidth has been doubled which seems to be very effective for games.
