Well, at least until AMD Zen comes out. I was flirting with an idea of switching to FX-9590 and running it at fixed 5 GHz but it would require buying new mobo and RAM (mind you, not the cheapest ones) which would still be Zen incompatible. Switching from AM2+ to AM3 and spending like a $1000 equivalent for stuff that would still be a stopgap setup half year before Zen CPUs being brought to the market is obviously a poor investment so I have to wait and enjoy what serves me well for 7 years now

Keep in mind, that the Stars final stepping E-O (Aka Thubans) are much faster than even the Piledriver C0 (Vishera) at instruction per clock.
Fastest My 1100T would do was a 4400mhz core clock, 3300mhz CPU-NB, and would handle DDR3 speeds of 2090ish. I had it on a M4N98td EVO, and it was running two GTX-480s.
Keep in mind that Skylake is very, very very fast. If Zen doesn’t deliver I will have no quarrels with going to Skylake-E
