A LGA2011-ish Dilemma

[atomicprince11]

Hi everyone.

I want to upgrade to LGA 2011 platform and I'm uncertain in picking the suitable motherboard. I am a fan of Asus and so far the options of X79 Sabertooth and X79 Rampage IV Black Ed intrigue me most.
I won't be using a 3 or 4 way SLI and I dont want to OC my CPU like crazy intense (so why the heck the rampage ), and on the other hand the sabertooth board is 3 years old.

Another matter on my mind is 2011-3 socket and next gen CPUs. Intel has announced that there wont be an increase in price of 5930 compared to 4930, but X99 series will require DDR4 memories and I assume they will have hefty prices when they enter the market.

The processor I'm considering right now is the 4930K and I have one Asus GTX 670 DCUII GPU. I might be able to add another 670 if I go for the less expensive choices.
I will use my rig for Gaming, 3D rendering and some single threaded softwares.

Any advise would be much appreciated.

If you have a huge budget, i'd wait for x99 to come out as it's right around the corner.

But if not, and your on a tight budget then the sabertooth would be good. However I'd still recommend the rampage as it's the most advanced x79 motherboard out there and your going to have your computer for years.
