Now, be aware that for most tasks, and even most games, the 4790K is overkill. Most things most people do with their machines don't require 8 logical cores running at 4 GHz. But if you need or want this speed, this is a great CPU.
I have this processor in a editing and work station build. I have a EVO 212 Hyper cooler installed, and I'm getting good temps
with a mild overclock.
Clocked at 4.5GHZ, a little past the normal turbo of 4.4GHZ at 1.180 volts and getting temps around 65-80 at the most using
Aida 64 or Intel Burn Test (intel burn test and prime 95 not recommended for Haswell).
It's a power house, my pc doesn't even have a GPU and it slices through video editing with no time at all.
Video encoding of around 15 minutes for a 2hr long 1080p video. Unzips a 1gb file in less than 10 seconds.
My last AMD APU Quad Core could not even play 4K youtube videos, this plays 4K like 480p, little to no challenge.
