i7 4790k Vs. FX 6200

[StaticDrift]

Hi everyone! I currently have an AMD FX 6200 6 core processor. I have been planning on getting a new PC build, but I am not sure if there will be an INSANE improvment of FPS from the 6200 tot he 4790k, if any performance increase. I am currently looking to edit in Sony Vegas, and game. With my current build ( 10 GB RAM, GTX 660, AMD FX 6200) I really can't edit videos with effects all that well in vegas because everytime it hits the effect it gets super laggy, sometimes freezing and crashing Vegas. My question is, is that will the 4790k and 2 GTX 980s in SLI even be able to smoothly transition effects in Vegas, or can they not? And how much more of a performance increase IN GAMES will I get from the FX 6200, I know it has more cores, and 3.8 GHZ so I simply don't know which will creme the other. Thanks in advanced for anyone who can answer these questions. Oh I forgot to mention I will be installing Vegas on an SSD called a Crucial MX100 2.5 in. SSD 512 GB. Will that help FPS and transitioning effects? Im sick of editing and freezing all the time. I also would like to make videos faster, can the 4790k render faster than my current CPU? Thanks

Yep the 4790K and the GTX 980x2 will show fps boost while editing videos
though the fx6200 has more cores and increased clock frequency but single core performance of intel processor is better
there is an insane difference in performance between fx 6200 and i7 4790K
yep SSDs decrease the load but your game and softwares should be placed in the SSD
it will decrease freezes and crashes

Ok. But will I be able to edit completely smoothly? Like, I'm not talking heavy editing like a COD montage with CC and RSMB, I'm just talking simple video transitions and maybe a Gaussian blur here and there.

if that's what you're talking about then there wouldn't be a problem

Alright, and just a few more questions. So how much FPS would this get Crysis 3 maxed 1080p 4x msaa, and secondly how fast could I render a 15 min video with this build?

probably 60+ fps

More fps than you could catch with your eye, probably about 100 fps. As for a 15 minute in vegas, possibly about 35 min of render time, assuming you're recording in high quality (60 fps) in shadowplay. Vegas is sadly very, very, very slow in rendering.
