So, I'm surprised how close these two proposed builds landed. My plan would be to OC the 4790K to 4.6 or OC the 5820K to 4.4; either option on liquid cooling. I've been averaging a build once every six years so some longevity is desired. My Core 2 Duo E8400 OC to 4.2 has hummed until it ran into the GoPro 1080P @ 120FPS fotoage .
The net difference between the two builds is a total of $237.53; while not "nothing" its not nearly as much as I expected. Specifically on the 5820K - does anyone have experience with overclocking and the ASRock Extreme 4 motherboard? I don't plan on chasing a clock speed of more than 4.4 or 4.5.

Uses:
Video editing (have a GoPro 4+ black) - would like to edit 1080P @ 120FPS, possible 2K @ 48 FPS.
Gaming and potentially streaming to an Nvidia Shield Tablet
