Hi...Budget or cost aside, which would be a better cpu choice for me, the quad core or the hexa core? I plan on using my pc for mostly video editing, cpu-intensive rendering and encoding, Adobe Photoshop graphics for photos, etc:

a 4th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5930K processor hexa-core [3.5GHz, 15MB Shared Cache] or
a 4th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K processor quad-core [4.0GHz, 8MB Shared Cache]


I will have 16 or 32GB DDR3-1600MHz ram,
and a 4GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 graphics card,
Samsung 850 Pro 256 GB SATA SSD,

I am looking to do a build within this next week.

Thanks,
