We're not arguing that the 3820 is on par with the 3930K, there's a reason the 3930K is so much more, but frankly not everyone needs 6 cores, some people might just want to get a gaming rig that has better support for 3+ graphics cards and not spend extra money on a 3930K that won't really offer a significant boost in gaming.
If you don't think the 3820 is worth the money, then that's great for you, but berating other people's choice of CPU is stupid, I could just equally argue why did you bother getting a measly 3930K when you could just fork out the extra few hundred dollars for a 3960X.

haha well played





























1st good go at it but my steup is fairly basic 120 , 240 rad good hose and fittings and a bloody good 3820 and a lot of r+d getting bios settings right , the asus rf4 is the best board so far , Failures of 2011 m boards ive encountered are discusting and woefull says alot about non exsistant Q/control ECS ARX-79 bran new DOA , ASROCK extreme4 sata ports drop out, gigabyte it works wont over volt stupid bios whatever , when i first got the rf4 it died 3hrs after i got it ! RMA that too .So i deserve 5ghz stable and a awesome o/c
