I way overpaid for this, $331 at Amazon less than a month ago, but it was perfect and I'm very happy with the speed. Only thing is, it seems to run hot with the included stock cooling fan, but that's why people buy liquid cooling fans. It's FAST, and I don't need to overclock either. Great chip:).
Oooh man, what a CPU, i had an i5-4690 and is great cpu I love it, for games, Photoshop and non professional video editing is great, after a year I replaced for i7-4790k n is 200% better, when install it in your pc you will see and feel the change
Very powerful processor. Strongest single core processing for a multi-core to date. Highly recommend to those programming with application needing powerful single core power.
If you need an i7, 4790k is as good as it gets, at least before the 6xxx series came out!The 4790k reports 10% better single core performance, and performance per dollar is around 2.5x better. If you are using it for gaming, I highly recommend going for an i5 for the cost saving, as i7 does very little for gaming overall.Overall the 6700k is about 5-10% higher performance ignoring the single core, which is becoming less relevant as more applications utilize it.
I am a gamer, and I usually have a lot going on in my computer, so with this processor and my RAM, I barely use any cpu. I most def do not regret this purchase.
Rendering audio in seconds and rendering videos in premiere pro in just a few minutes unlike HOURS like my old CPU (Fx-6300) its expensive but so so soooo worth it
Bought this after looking for an unlocked I7 to match with my Z87-A motherboard and NEPTON 240m water cooling. Work as expected, idle at 25-32 depending on your ambient temperature 21-23, mine was inside my office. Using ASUS suite OC utility, I was able to get this4.8ghz but settled for 4.6 for stable, not all my components can overclock well like my old 7970 RADEON card. Hopefully upgrading to Nvidia 980TI Hybrid I can push this further 4.8ghz.
