You left off the most important piece of information, budget

i have enough like $3000-4000

the fact that i didn't mention it is because in india almost all things cost 1.5-2times

 

also because all the things like CPU and GPU have verious different price categories like Xeon,Core i7 extreme,Core i7.thats why i asked which will be enough for me or is there need of more

i7 2600k/2700k is all and more than most of the population needs for a gaming/productivity system. For gaming, the i5 2500k performs about the same for $100 less. Unless you're building a server, which you aren't, you can skip the Xeons. 

If you want the most current and are willing to spend more on the CPU/motherboard, the i7 3930k was recently released as a part of the new line of CPUs using the new socket LGA 2011. It's a $600 CPU with limited (but excellent) motherboard choices that currently don't dip below $300 at the bottom end and are closer to $500 at the top.

how long will 6 cores processors suit as intel takes new processors every year and they could give 6 cores next year for normal processors such as i7 and i5 other than extreme processors which will go higher

 

also i7 3930k in india costs $1200

 

i might still go for it though there should be value and are current applications even using that much,if not then it will support me for alot of years so i might buy it
