Fair enough, that's exactly what I do before buying things also.

Good luck with the build.

For motherboard take a look at the AsRock X79 Extreme6 or some of their higher ones. It's got 12+2 phase power management and all the features I can think that would be needed in a premium board. It's also considerably less expensive than the Rampage IV Extreme.

Not that I'm a fanboy for either side, but I'm more than happy with my own Extreme6.

Take a look at the link in my sig, AsRock really does make some good quality boards. I would place them on par with Asus or Gigabyte.

I'm not sure where are you getting at.

Both 3960x and 3930k are X79 platform in all those reviews. 3960x is just not worth $400 more.

Now, extra cash for X79?

3930k is not Ivy Bridge if you think it is according to your judgement / question.

i know the 3930k is not ivy bridge i asked if i should get that or ivy bridge, and I dont want the 3960x just the 3930k

in my question i said currently have the 3930k picked out in my head but I was wondering if I should switch (meaning the CPU choice) and build around an IVY-Bridge CPU and if I should what one should I get (meaning an IVY-Bridge CPU)?

You will for 100% able to clock your CPU to 4.6 GHz, higher MHzs are luck, but i think you will able to do 4.8 GHz just fine, 5.0 GHz for everyday usage involves a lot of luck, but who knows, maybe you get gold chip. But anyway that CPU is beast. One more time good luck, and post results.
