Pros: This is currently the fastest quad core I7 you can get. The stock clock of 4ghz makes it blazing fast even if you do not choose to overclock. The fact that is is a K model means with the right Motherboard you can easily push it to 4.6ghz, some have pushed these close to 5ghz, but I was not so lucky.
Cons: Very hard to find for sale due to Intel not making enough
Overall Review: I know you are asking yourself should I get this or go for the 5820k. I think it depends on your use case, for video editing and other heavy multi threaded apps you will see better performance on the 5820k, but difference will not be huge and it will use more power and cause more heat. I think the difference in performance is only measurable in benchmarks and not so obvious in real world use. Regardless of your primary use you will be happy with this chip. It does everything very well
