was just curious, thinking that the i5 might be holding the ti back as i see cpu usage in the mid 90's during ghost recon wildlands benchmarks.
With haswell, the performance difference between the i7 and i5 was less than it is now. If you look at benchmarks where the 4690k and 4790k are at the same clocks, the performance difference is really small.Do you think this is a useless upgrade for a person whose running a 1080ti? And if there is even a small improvement in performance, would it be worth the investment compared to upgrading to a new socket?
They go for about 200 used. Don't look at newegg prices for EoL products. They always have a huge upcharge to get the few people that are desperate enough to fork over the money. $448 might seem a lot but still cheaper then a entire platform upgrade if a cpu dies.Holy crap, I almost forgot that I used a 4690K in a HTPC rig a couple of years ago, those chips are $448 right now at Newegg! Guessing that they are OOP and scarce or something, but I know there's no way I paid more than half that for a HTPC chip.
not worth the upgrade at all, if you are wanting to do a full upgrade go Kaby/Coffee or Ryzen, not worth putting money into haswell anymore.
I don't see my 4670K @ 4.6 holding my 1080ti back at all.
