I do a lot video rendering for my website, but my CPU is really holding me back. I use Adobe Premire CS5 with my i7 920. Recently i had to back down my over clock as it started failing after a couple of years, so i am at stock speeds. This essentially means that it is taking 30 mins for 15 mins of video, which is quite a bit longer than when i had the CPU at 3.8Ghz.

The choice is 2011 or 1155, but which CPU would be best for video, 3770 or 3820?
 
Do you also have HT on?

Between the two CPUs I would probably go for the 3770K, but ideally it would've been nice if the 6 cores were cheaper...
