I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that going from a Core 2 Quad Q6600 to a i7-4770K, is an upgrade that you will feel in the seat of your pants.
We all love doing computer upgrades, but sometimes we have to ask ourselves if a full system upgrade is worth it or necessary. There are times that you may only gain a small percentage of a performance boost, where there are other times that you gain significant increases. Today I am going to compare my original Intel Kentsfield CPU and X38 motherboard to a shiny new Haswell CPU and Z87 motherboard.
