You know, regardless of what CPU you would end up replacing your 3930k with, you're not going to see any performance difference. It's just a waste of money. I find little difference in my games between running at 4Ghz and 4.75Ghz. I wouldn't replace it just because it doesn't clock as high at a quad-core with less heat. You have a 6-core machine. It can handle anything, so why would you care if your clocks are higher or not if the chip you would be getting has 2 fewer cores?

The question of upgrading from a 3930k isn't a question that really should be getting asked yet, because whatever you get will be just as good or worse.
