don't know if you guys have heard but the extreme edition haswells, due out next year, will be octo core parts instead of hexa cores.
for those of you that don't know, the slowest SB-E hexa core is the 3930k and can be had for $500, though microcenter every once in a while drops the price down to $400 for a couple of weeks, then they raise the price again.
assuming history repeats itself, come thanksgiving 2014 we might be able to pick up an 8 core 16 thread cpu for $400. with avx2 and tsx, this thing could be just what the doctor ordered for encoding 2/3/4k video with avc/hvec.
