I'd go with 16GB ram and a SSD

Planning on picking up a 2600k, from all the reading I have been doing it seems like the best processor for what I plan to do. With that being said what mother board would be ideal to go with, I want something that I can use again this summer incase I see the need to update the CPU again for whatever reason.
My main objective is to mostly play online games while running xsplit to stream, as well as Fraps on occasion. I will also be doing light video editing a couple times a week.
P.S. Should I got with 16gb ram for this?
how many sandy bridge owners (2500-2600) will switch to LGA2011=
I'm tempted but I think that I will wait ivy on LGA1155.
I'm not going to...the cost of upgrading is too expensive for what I do with my computer. If anything, I'll pick up a 2700k from the Intel Retail Edge Holiday deal and put that in, but other than that, I'm not planning a major upgrade...might even skip Ivy Bridge.

Hopefully i notice some difference from a 2500k to a 2600k...

I have a sealed Batch L137B605 and a sealed Batch L037B039 and I can't decide which one to crack open.
I plan on selling the other one and the anxiety is keeeeeeling meeeeee.
And, no, I won't tell you where I got that L037 chip.
Any thoughts here for which one to take the plunge with?
I'm a bit skeered to jump in with a Engineering Sample as a daily driver on a high overclock, so I'm leaning towards to the other one.
BUT, if I go with the other one, it might be a little trickier finding a buyer for the little Golden Chip.
Decisions, decisions.
If it's a golden chip people will buy it no matter what.
But....it's an engineering sample. I have no idea how to sell it.
You cannot sell it, it is not your property.
New guy joining in here, but I am assuming that my results aren't all too common.
I manually set my voltage to 1.52, with speedstep enabled. Idle temps are about 20° and under load average 70° to 73° on a H80 cooling system.
I originally had it set to 52 X 100, but feel like 50 X 104 seems to be faster in the overall perfomance of the system.
I have been reading about degradation of the Sandy Bridge chips and would like to know if this is pushing things too much with the voltage set at 1.52? Like I said, speedstep is enabled and temps seem well under control.

sounds like you're applying 65nm conroe overclocking concepts to 32nm sandybridge.
rule of thumb for sandy bridge is <=1.45 volts, run cpu-z and see what your voltages are at load, im guessing you might be getting up to 1.47
You can try turning EIST back on - it works well with Sandy Bridge overclocking.
I did this. I also did my settings through the BIOS since it works with the latest update. Still can't get 4.7Ghz even if I crank the CPU Voltage to 1.40. It won't boot into windows.
Using PLL I have gotten a stable 4.7 overclock at 1.395V. My temps maxed at 64/64/68/68 and were more like 62/62/66/66 for the most part.Oh yeah, EIST won't help with overclocking. I was just saying to turn it back on for powersaving reasons. Enable Internal PLL Overvoltage and see if that gets you 4.7 - it is usually good for a couple of extra multipliers.

Edit: Can't get 4.8 so far. Went up to 1.415 vcore and raised the other core voltages to the Intel max recommendeds and called it that. Won't even boot. Gonna try BLCK and memory later on today.
what is the reason of changing the BCLK?
The concern with changing the BCLK on these processors is that there is only the one clock and everything is tied to it - so upping the BCLK also ups the PCIe clock and all the other clocks as well. Not worth the increased risk of problems when you can just up the multiplier one more notch instead.
I thought BCLK safe range at 100-107 ?
for example change combination blck and muli.
48 x 100 = 4800
46 x 104.4 = 4800
44 x 109 = 4800
yes but what is the reason of choosing a lower multiplier?
raising BCLK has no sense on K series processors.
