Review on Intel Core i7-4790K CPU (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz) - BX80646I74790K by Stanislaw Lambach ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect product for any user!

Before 4790k, I used only the “fourth stump” and Core 2 Duo (there was also some more or less powerful AMD, I don’t really remember it, because I think it was given to me), so the effect of the difference in their performance was only “Wow”. I don’t work with overclocking, I don’t set special requirements for hardware. I take what I want and what suits my urgent needs. Therefore, my experience may not be solid, but good impressions have not gone away. Very worthwhile item, I recommend. Although, at the moment, based on the reserve for the future, you can take a later generation that works with DDR4. Again, gamers, I'm more of an amateur player. I watched videos and reviews on the difference in performance between DDR3 and DDR4, I didn’t see much difference for myself. Unless it shows up in tests, in dry numbers, Or if you fap for an extra 3-5 fps in games, when it's "over 140" without them.

Pros
  • I liked everything that was counted. Describing hardware and software advantages is a long and sometimes thankless task. Moreover, in the reviews about them there are already a lot of things.
Cons
  • Price. I took it in 2022 for 24-26k. The price of such a processor at that time was 15-18k. Ceiling. But nothing can be done. Either take it or don't take it. It would be possible to look somewhere for 20k, but did not bother and took it in an online store that has been tested over the years. I won't name it, no one will pay me for advertising.
