I just tried to make him the best build in his budget. Is it overkill for gaming? Yea it is but it will greatly out perform all of our systems if he grabs a second 7970 to crossfire. Those lga2011 boards are nasty
Not in benchmarks really. 1155 sockets can clock higher than 2011 sockets.
Only reason to get a 2011 socket is for Quad-CFx/SLi or if you need extra cores for PS, LR and some video editing

I'm upgrading to a 2011 socket Ivy-E if they ever freaking drop. I was hoping January but not it is probably sometime Q3-4 2013.

From what I've read, the 3820 overclocks really well and will outperform the 3770k.
Thats why I said if he saves up to crossfire another 7970, he will probably have the best rig on here (if he overclocks)
