  Good processor but Intel doesn't have any competition so they keep the price high.

  System was purchased almost entirely on Amazon. My previous i7-860 build was done the same way. Amazon is a great way to make a computer. I really like the Amazon site tips where they tell you what other parts people are buying along with your processor or motherboard etc.. Very helpful and dead on. I picked away at buying parts for this over the last 6-7 months almost like a layaway program. I popped in the win 10 disc and voila I was up and running in literally minutes, scary fast. Negative Windows 10 reviews on the site are all from non-verified free upgrades from non-purchases. Don't read them!! Worthless. Buy the disc and get a real operating system.01. i7-4790k LGA115002. Gigabuyte Z97X-UD3H motherboard03. Gigabyte Nvidia GTX960 Windforce 3fan 4gb vidcard04. Kingston 4x8gb HyperX Fury 1866mhz PnP(non xmp)05. Samsung EVO 500gb SSD06.

Pioneer BD-rw BluRay/DVD/CD writer12. (next) Hauppauge 2255 HDTV pcie tunerI don't know what else you can say about a processor that I read where people have overclocked the cpu into the 5ghz range. On the day I loaded win10, I gave it the first big test with the mobo Intel Graphics. I dialed up Steam and put Tomb Raider on the HDTV to see how the new processor and Gigabyte motherboard ran without a real GPU. WOW, was I shocked. TR ran on normal level where my i7-860 runs TR. i7-860 system won't run TR on ultimate settings at all. Once I got the Gigabyte GTX960, TR ran on ultimate without even breaking a sweat.The entire system ran me about $1500 and the only other software I purchased was Adobe Lightroom and Nero 2015. If you match the pieces of this system you will have a nice ready to run anything PC. Windows 10 so far is impressive, but was very upset to lose my favorite MCE from win7 that ran everything perfectly. Gotta start reinventing the HDTV portion.UPDATE:2016-01-15, The Amazon purchased computer parts above have proved to be ROCK SOLID one year later. I did recently buy the new Tomb Raider, Rise of, which has the ability to run on DirectX 12 or not. Also the game is one of the first to utilize all cores of the i7-4790k processor. I haven't verified this other than what I heard once. The game runs Rise of TR on ULTIMATE settings, but I think the DirectX 12 needs some work. I can't say enough about this processor and computer build. With so many other computer builds or rebuilds, there is tweaking and hunting for patches or fixes(win98,winXP,Vista,win7), and this win10 i7-4790k, it is simply awesome. You turn it on, and you are ready to be computing or dialing up Steam in seconds! My win7, you can go refill your coffee and anything that coffee induces during start up. The $300+ for the processor was a great buy. I really think some of the games and programs may be able to start utilizing some extra lanes of power they give us. The video processing is really fast, and I really like the USB3.0 for double write speeds versus USB2.0. I have switched many of my HDs to 2-3TB WD Passport drives with their smaller sized increase speed, and have dumped several larger hotter running HDs that are more affixed to the computer.If considering a new build, I would definitely stay with the LGA1150 genre. The parts for slightly older hi-tech items is dropping, while the newer parts for the i7-6700's seemed quite bit higher when I made this computer. RAM, video cards, motherboards, are all cheaper with this LGA1150 processor. I haven't compared specs, but the ones I see, are not big enough to warrant a higher payout for parts.

  Works like a charm. There is not much to be said about the i7 other than it performs amazingly. It is currently being used in a decently high-end gaming rig and combined with a few other premium parts can run triple A games at ultra settings with no problem. Multitasking is a breeze as it can handle multiple programs running on two separate monitors with little to no problems.

  I bought this for my son per his request. This purchase was made based on all of the positive reviews it received. He said his PC is noticeably better!

  Oh my, what happened to your face??? This is the face of POWAH!Blazing fast speeds for an awesome price. It's not very often you get this much bang for your buck. I put this in my new PC build and it's awesome. My motherboard uses OC genie and it overclocks this processor at 4.4GHz, and with the Zalman heat sink this rarely goes over 40C for all 4 processors. Both I would recommend highly if your system can support it. The only cons I can think of is that it uses a lot of power to run, and that the stock heat sink that comes with it does not look like it could support an overclocked processor. All in all, if you are looking for a CPU upgrade and this bad boy will fit your motherboard, and the Zalman CPU Cooler CNPS9500AT fits in your case, it's worth the upgrade.

  Oh my gosh...I can't even imagine what the 6000 series are like because this thing is insane. I have a gigabyte z97x gaming 7 motherboard and the two work together very well. I use the factory heat sink and the processor doesn't get too hot when overclocking. This paired with a powerful graphics card (i have an AMD Raedon 7870) will make any rig limitless.
