Currently running a 6 core Xeon L5639 cpu on an X58 board. Clocked it nice to 3.4Ghz. Dosent really struggle with much and cant really tell any difference from the 3770K at 4.4Ghz system that I had to sell at Xmas.

However, due to a new company taking over our place of work and changing there pay patterns I will be getting double paid at end of this month so should be able to fund mobo/cpu upgrade. Id probably be looking at an i7 3820 on an X79 board.

Games really but haven't had any recent games, last one I got was Ghosts. Was meaning to get BF4 at some point which I thought may benefit from my current CPU. Another option I was considering was SLI but I think that may be overkill too at the moment :)
