Unless you plan on looking into a six core processor one day, LGA2011 might not be your best bet. I have a 3820 and it's great but i realize I could have saved some coin if I went with an LGA1155 or 1150 proc and board. And I wouldn't go with crossfire right off the bat. Go with a GTX670 or Radeon 7970. Also get at least 8 gigs of ram for a gaming build. 4 is the bare minimum. .
