Which of these two music setups?

Hi all!

I'm about to build myself a setup for music production. No gaming.

I have assembled these two alternatives on a Swedish webshop:

First one is a 1155-build with i7 3770k and the other one is a 2011-build with i7 3930k.

My question is: Is it worth the extra money (about 270 GBP) to buy the 3930k? If there is a big difference between the two I'll gladly pay the extra money, but if the 3770k will be enough for music production I'll gladly stick with that one. I haven't seen any good comparisons between the two, especially when speaking about music production so I have a hard time deciding.

Any input or help would be much appreciated! Thanks

You will not need the 6 core for production at all. If you were recoding from one file type to another it would be a little faster but not 270 worth of change... both will be awesome..

Thanks a lot for your advice! Much appreciated.

I've had a couple of people telling me SB-E is the best choice for music production, but I'm not sure myself if it's worth the extra cost. Is your advice based on your own experience?
