A 4960X and 4930K in no way shape or form will improve your gaming experience. Even an i7-4770K won't do much since most games don't take advantage of the extra horse power. After you spend about $2500 on a gaming PC just about everything else is pure overkill.

Yeah if you look at benchmarks there's very minor performance increases once you go up from i5-4670K and the i7-4770K:
