Hello guys hope you all can give me your opinion about this.

I have the cpu and mobo and the mem that you see in my rig.
but I can change it to a 4670k and a z87 asus sabertooth and 8gb corsair dominators platinum 2133mhz everything is of course with guarantee and are in top shape (lol)
the 4670k is a es sample and will boot at 1.185v at 4.6ghz
the main thing I do is gaming, using WinRAR and multipar to extract/compress big files and rendering with maxon cinema 4d.

would you change???????????????????????????

No way that would be dumb. The 3820 is a much better CPU with 8 threads, higher clocks, bigger L2 cache. the 4670K only has 4 cores and not HT.

No way.
 
yes I now okedokey, and I thought YOU would say that, and I agree, almost for the most part, the only reason why I hesitate is because its newer.
And because I read that if you have a 4670k that will boot at 1.2v and mp 46 then you have a good chip, I now that the 4670k is rock solid stable at 4.8ghz with 1.28v, but on the other end the chip I have now I can cool it on 4.8ghz, the 4670k I cooled by a h105

All of that doesn't matter. You have twice the horsepower for your tasks with the 3820K. If you don't want an answer, dont ask.
 
You already invested in X79, it's kind of a cash dump to go back.

If you want some more performance pick up a 3930k/4930k
