I have put together a parts list for a build and could use some advice for choosing a cpu. The motherboard that I like (ASRock X99M Extreme4) will accept i7-5820K as well as Xeon E5 2603 V3. I am not a gamer. This would be used to process video (makemkv / handbrake) and act as a share on my network with a cpu upgrade in the future to stretch the life out of this build. OS is Ubuntu 14.04 if that makes a difference.
Is the Xeon E5 2603 V3 a choice I will regret for the next couple years until I upgrade the cpu?
Any advice is welcome. I am trying to balance the wants and needs against my meager resources.
