I have a asus p9x79 pro of which takes both processors.. i am doing video editing.., but not sure which is best as there is around a £600 price difference..

Also using TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 6 which am assuming would use all 10 cores / 20 threads..

I am at the moment using i7-3820 3.6 which is taking around 1.5 to 2hrs hrs to do a mp4 1hr video... conversion/edit from mpeg 2

Any advice would be very much appreciated.. I have just bought 64gb 8X8gb sticks 16GB 1866MHZ DDR3 CL10 DI MM (KIT OF 2) XMP BEAST so the memory channels with be optimized.

I would pay the extra cash should it be worth it. but not buy a new pc as it's still very much top range for a over 2 years old build
