Hmmmmm x3 7970's......im not sure if there's any CPU's that wouldn't bottleneck this :P

Seems kind of stupid since one, and most certainly two 7970's will max just about anything on as many screens as you want. Why not wait for a price drop before you install a third?

If is just for gaming buy 2600k.
If you work in 3D , CAD . Video editing and other heavy programs then buy 3930k.

if you're not buying til augaust then you might very well have some even better options since ivy bridge should be out by then.
