Pros: 4.0ghz (4.4ghz Turbo) Hyperthreaded New TIM and packaging for this refreshed Haswell Unlocked cpu Overclocks well enough considering stock clocks Intel HD 4600 Cons: Lousy stock cooler. Getting expensive Overall Review: To be honest there was nothing wrong with my 3770K or 4770K. However I am an early adopter and building computers is a hobby of mine. I decided to buy the 4790K to see what the new TIM and packaging brought to the table. I must confess that I am pleasantly surprised. I…

Pros: 4.0 out of the box with a 4.4 turbo. Mine started at 4.4 all the time so i clocked it down to 4.0 Easy O.C. by just raising multiplier on a z97 chip set no need to adjust voltages. Not to expensive. Stays cool Cons: none so far. Overall Review: I had to do a follow up as i don’t overclock a chip till after about 200 hours break in period. I am using with a zalman cooler which i don’t recommend. You get better service from any other company. I am using on a gigabyte gaming G1. I finally…

Pros: Amazing performance, plus stability and reasonable temperatures. Beats the last two processors I’ve owned (Ivy Bridge i5-3570K and Haswell i3-4130) by a huge margin in most areas. My 3570K had 10 or more degrees Celsius difference between the coolest and hottest cores, and the highest stable overclock I got was 4.2 GHz. The new Haswell Refresh thermal interface material really works in my experience, as my 4790K has at most three, *maybe* four, degrees difference between cores, and…

Pros: I am able to 4.8Ghz at 1.4v Corsair H100 @ 84c with prime Not too bad. Its stable. Cool and clocks better than my i7 3770K. I’m using a Gigabyte Z97X Gaming G1 Cons: Absolutely none. It wont quite hit 5.0 but its a good chip Overall Review: This really is what the 4770K should have been. But better late then never. Say goodbye to AMD. There is just no comparison. All benches this chip shines when its overclocked

Pros: System Specs: Core i7 4790K 4.8 GHz ASrock Z97 OC Formula 16 GB DDR3 2666 MHz SLI Asus GTX Titan 1228 MHz/6 GHz Cooler Master RPP 1250 watt Win7 x64 The 4790K really is an incredibly powerful CPU. Especially based on its price and compared to AMDs similar offerings. It appears that the vast majority of these chips are capable of running at 4.8 GHz and there are some that will run at and even above 5 GHz. 3D Mark Benchmarks with my system: 3D Mark Fire Strike P17567 X9574 3D Mark 11…

Pros: I love this CPU!! I’ve always upgraded every 5 years and this by far has been my best upgrade yet. I came from an i7-930 Bloomfield CPU, which is still in service in another computer to this day. What did I get from this upgrade? A 97% increase in performance across the board. In some areas higher. The fact that I can overclock this CPU AND have virtualization support is phenomenal! Very glad that I held out for this CPU. Benchmarks of my old system always showed my CPU as the…

Pros: Wow! Fast! Super power! Easy install in a new Windows 7 build. Cons: Your’e kidding right? Cons? Overall Review: This CPU is a real beast!

Pros: The K version allows you to overclock the CPU speed, so it tends to appeal to gamers and, naturally, overclocker enthusiasts opposed to business users. I overclock my i7-4770K not long after I got it over a year ago just for fun. This one is for my wife. She isn’t a gamer, so I wanted to make sure I didn’t push the stability. The 4790K PC beats my overclocked system by a clear margin. This CPU is fast and stable. I have a closed-loop water cooler on it and the temperature is not an…
