planning to build from scratch. which of these lga sockets are future proof?
motherboards are the last component i usually upgrade. so im thinking which lga socket to get.

1150
2011, 2011v3
or wait for lga 1151? (skylake)

so i would like to have a motherboard which can accommodate future processor upgrades, and accept new technology like ddr4

the newest among these, (i think) is the 2011v3 which currently only supports 3 "non-server" cpus. the cheapest being the i7 5820k.

are there any upcoming intel cpus for 1150 to still consider it now, or they'll be in totally different sockets? also is it safe to say that lga 2011v3 is more future proof even though it isnt in the "mainstream" side?
