Heat issues and the steep costs of the kit may make some people think twice but the i7 is the best for gaming and media you can get for the money. Paired with a high-end graphics card the i7-4790k will hum along nicely for years to come...

Update isn't quite significant enough to upgrade from the initial Haswell CPUs, IGP performance in nonsynthetic benchmarks continues to be a concern
At one stage we had expected the Haswell refresh to be a by-the-numbers update of the original Haswell CPU – a small multiplier bump and perhaps slightly better overclocking capability for the same cost. Whilst it isn't part of today's review, the Core i5...

Thanks to it's higher clock-frequency the Core i7 4790K is clearly faster than the 4770K. A good example is the Cinebench benchmark, where the 4770K managed 8,08 points compared the 9,05 points of the 4790K, in other words a 12% increase. This is great ...
