How long will the 6 core 5820K last for 1080p ultra settings? And how long before it starts to noticeably bottleneck graphics cards?
Also, will the Hyper 212 Evo be a good cooler for the 5820K? And will it work on LGA2011-3. If so, how much will I be able to over-clock the 5820K?
Sorry for the long post guys
Thanks for the responses
Much appreciated

The 5820 isn't out yet, there are no reviews about it and noone can have any experience about it.

As for it being Haswell-E, I could imagine it would clock to about 4.4-4.6ghz. Probably a bit higher. Mostlikely not on a 212 evo, though. If you want to clock that cpu into high regions you should go with a high end air or AIO water cooling.
Noctua NH-D14/15 or Corsaid H100i for example. For slight overclocks, the 212 should do good enough, though.

About it's longevity, theres not much to say. We don't know it's performance right now, neither do we know how fast technology invention goes.
Assuming its going to be the same as in the last years, the 5820k will last you for a long, long time for high end gaming. It is specified to have 6...

That CPU should last 7+ years as the games are slowly leaning towards multi core and that CPU will be beastly good in multi core tasks. Also, GPU can work with old CPUs.
EVO Would be a good cooler but with such beefy CPU you could probably afford Noctua D14 or above.
Yes its made to work on LGA2011-3.
4Ghz should be easy. 4.2-4.5GHz max I'd say.

Assuming its going to be the same as in the last years, the 5820k will last you for a long, long time for high end gaming. It is specified to have 6 cores/12 threads and (most) current games don't even make use of 8 threads. Expect it to last you at least 5-6 years.

And yes, it's going to work on LGA 2011-3.
