6700K or 2011v3 cpu ?

[tarbax]

Hi LTT forum members,

 

I going to upgrade in a few days from my 4770K with my sabertooh x87 and 16 gb 2400mhz More specs in my bio.

I want some more performance for productivity mostly doing some graphic intensive programs like 50mb+ raw files in Adobe lightroom/photoshop, DxO Optics pro, 4k sony vegas edits.

Also i game regularly and doing some heavy network related stuff (servers, websites,etc)

It must be a multitasking whore!

 

 

My budget ? around 900dollar

New motherboard need to have:

usb 3.1 @ rear IO

sata express for an usb3.1 connectivity in the front of my case

minimum 2 intel nics

love to have an color scheme red/black

 

What are your recommendations ?

Thanks in advance!

The 6700K and 1231 v3 (If you are talking about this CPU for the 2011v3 socket) will not offer much improvement over your current 4770k.

I suggest you look at the x99 platform, either the 6 core 5820k, 5930k (If SLI), or 8 core 5960X.

You'd be wasting cash on the z170a. Do you actually need more performance? I mean the extra cores from a 5820k is noticeable but why get the 4770k in the first place?

the 1231v3 is still 1150

For heavy multithreaded tasks you should go for the X99 chipset and get a 6 or 8 core Intel CPU.

 

For gaming its going to make zero difference.

I never did content creation i started +/-1 year ago. previously i did only gaming on this machine.

Then i'd just get a 5820k and 32GB of ram.

X99 is the way to go for a workstation.

 

Either 5820k/5930k, 32/64 GB RAM, and a GTX 980(Ti)

Gaming = 1151 / Work = 2011

I think of getting an asus x99 deluxe an the 5820k with 16 gb ram to start of. and stick more ram when i have more to spend.

Can do the asus x99 deluxe teaming with its dual intel nics ?

Otherwise i pick the sabertooth version

I'd go with the cheapest mobo that meets your specs. 

 

16gb of ram is good and what is what I use but I've reached over 10gb just gaming + chrome so with heavy video 4k edits I'd prob look into 32gb.,

Upgrade is done i have now an

5820K

asus x99 sabertooth

16gb corsair LPX memory
