Need some advise on my current build.

Everything shown I have already purchased a while back now, looking for the last remaining pieces (cpu & power supply). Mainly just for games and streaming/some video editing. I'll upgrade the gpu when I can afford it.
Basically looking for a cost effective cpu. When I was ready to pull the trigger months back it was between the 5820k and the 6800k.. any advice/ideas I would appreciate it
Buy an engineering sample xeon off ebay and OC it.

Really? With and lga2011-v3?

Think this would hold its weight better than the 6800k? I don't need the threads but clock speed and bulk that 6 core has seemed right. Maybe I'll look into it. Do you think at that point I should try to water cool? The reason I' got this case is I get poor air circulation in the room this is going in.

you cannot overclock this more than 50% (if you could they would have moved it up the xeon product stack and named it differently), and even then it's too many cores too little frequency for games. Look for 6-8 cores and a minimum of 3ish GHz.
