I'm looking at a 6800k but want to know what a 6900k would do to the speeds of my renderings for the additional $600 cost.

 

If this helps:

I have my Current CPU with a 3930k OC 4.6 which I use to do Acad and Chief Architect x8. I recently built a Second New CPU with a 6700k OC 4.5 which is used by Staff to do occasional x8 work. I loaded both with the same model and rendered it, I had all the settings the same and the 6700k was almost twice as fast? I did some other side by side tasks and the 6700k would either match or blow the 3930k out of the water.  

Current CPU: 3930k O.C. 4.6 on water h80, (4) 16gb ddr3 1600 ram, Asus P9X79 Deluxe, 480 SSD & Evga 1080 FTW. 850psu

New CPU: 6700k O.C. 4.5 on water H100i, (2) 16gb DDR4 3400 ram, ASRock Z170 gaming-itx/ac, M.2 Samsung 950 512gb, Evga 1070 FE

I think my best bet is to use a i7-6800k (28 lanes) with the ASrock gaming I7 MB with a M.2 Samsung 950 PRO, I am thinking that the G.skill DDR4-3200 16GB(2x8) ram should be enough, I don't think 32GB will help me any?

I will reuse my Evga 850 PSU and storage devices and of course the Evga GTX 1080 FTW. 

 

Does anyone see any problems with this set-up?

I pulled the trigger on the I7-6800k, If anyone cares, I will run Cinebench and Render the same model on all three of my machines and post the results.
