Get the upcoming Haswell 4770_ in the next month or two, if you can wait, & pair it with a z87 based mobo. The AMD processors aren't true 8 core processors however in multithreaded tasks they'll be equally as good if not better than most processors from Intel except the top of the line i7, currently 3770_ IVB, so for a lesser amount of money upfront, 5~10K based on CPU+mobo you choose from, you'll get equivalent levels of performance from AMD. The caveat being that AMD processors generally use 50~100 watts more under load, hope this helps solve your query somewhat.
