3930K and the X79 platform use DDR3 not DDR4 RAM. To use DDR4 RAM, you need to go with the X99 chipset and corresponding socket 2011-3 CPUs. 5820K, 5930K, or 5960X would be the corresponding CPUs for X99.
For purely gaming performance at stock clocks, I would say the performance difference would be marginal between the two. Maybe 5-10% if that.
