u didn't answer the ram vs channel question?

if ram is put in for exmaple,if the processor supports 3 channel and i put in 4 ram sticks,will it effect performance

3930x costs me $1200 and 3960x costs me $1400 in india,is it worth it or will intel bring 6core processors for $300 in 1.5-2 year time

how much ram compensates in encoding time for cpu power

does cache has to do anything with performace time as i can buy an ssd if needed,a small one

If you want to show-off, go for the expensive stuff and find enough people you can brag with your system.

If you want to actually work/game, a Sandy Bridge i7, 16/32G Ram (1600, anything higher is a waste of money) and an Nvidia580 (with lots of ram) is all you need. Since you say you live in India, a stable UPS and good cooling is a better idea than wasting money on overrated stuff (which includes SSDs that make booting 20sec faster and for the rest of the day heat up your PC for nothing).
