The information is probably only rumoured however I'm wondering when the 2012/2013 socket CPU's will be coming out, like the equivalent to the 3930k.
 
When is Q3 Ivy Bridge-E Going to be launched ?

In case you've not guessed by the remarks above Q3 means the third quarter of this year so July to September.

Although as pointed out a lot is from so called leaked roadmaps.
 
Are there any high end Intel chips coming out soon which have 6 cores
or 8 cores that are going to be a worthwhile upgrade, a decent
performance upgrade all around from a Intel Core i7 980X?

assuming new games after the new console releases start using more than 4 cores due to the new xbox having an 8 core cpu , then yes socket 2011 might be worth it assuming the socket 2011 releases have 8 core or more cpus. haswell doesnt look like its going to have more than 4 cores until haswell-e whenever that is, so thats deffo not worth it, unless clock for clock performance is signicantly better which i doubt as they are concentrating more on the igp which reportedly will be as fast as a nvidia 650m
