This would be pretty cool to win, only problem being that it'd probably end up being left in the box for ages.

Still, i'd probably use it for my main rig.

I'd probably use this in a water cooling build i was planning to do eventually.

I would buy a new x99 motherboard and upgrade my p67 2600k setup for one more tuned towards streaming and gaming. I've always wanted to start a youtube channel and being able to video edit with this beast would be sweet! I'd then give my old build to a family member in need of a good pc. Good luck everyone!

My 2500k is starting to get a bit long in the tooth, especially for video rendering, so a 5820K would be a perfect start to a new system.

I would REALLY like to win this CPU! I'm rendering a lot of footage in After Effects, which I just bought more RAM for, but my cpu is still not able to catch up.

I am currently using a laptop for my gaming and internet browsing, so I would use the CPU for a new pc that i've been planning. I wasn't going to use X99, but I'll figure it out

Defiantly use the cores; video editing, more multitasking, 3d rendering ... the list goes on!

I would build my first x99 watercooled gaming pc that I've built and spend time on over clocking it for the highest performance to temperature I could get.

Ya know i would like to win this new CPU but then i'd have to buy a new motherboard and RAM to actually use it since it won't work with my current X79 rig.

I doubt i could afford another upgrade. All i really need for my current rig is a larger case and a watercooling kit (like an i100) for my CPU, then I can OC it to 4.6ghz

Yeah so first I'd buy a 2011-3 motherboard and a GTX 970 and then overclock the crap out of it and play games :)))
