A perfect match to my new Nvidia 970. Upgraded from the i5 2380p and what a difference. its an amazing processor that can take a beating and not break a sweat.

I'm in love with it. I don't even bother to overclock and it plays all the games and does everything I ask it at high speeds with no hiccups.

Works as advertised, what can I say. Intel delivers. I've overclocked it form 4 GH to 4.75 Ghz and it's perfectly stable. No problems at all. The 4ht genration Haswell chip was worth waiting for and I am very pleased. I am running a CoolerMaster cpu cooler, and could have probably gotten by with the standard intel cooler, even when overclocking. Price and performance were right in the sweet spot in my opinion.

I received a motherboard instead of processor first time. Did send right thing out right away.

You're so fast, i love you too, i7-4790k :D But oh how you burn me up when you run so hot! I was getting 95*c temps under load with this processor until i turned the voltage down to 1.20. Then it was around 80 to 85*c. That's still a little too high for my liking.I'd recommend you pair this with an aftermarket cooler, specifically the Corsair Hydro Series H55. I found it to be a very good cooler that dropped my load temps to 45*c, peaking at around 60*c tops!Just don't make the mistake i made and buy this processor, test it, find that it runs hot, go out and get the cooler, and then have to remove the old stock fan. What a pain in the butt. One stop shopping. Get the hyrdo cooler when you get the processor. Good luck!
