One thing you gotta keep in mind is the 4790k will most of the time overclock more and the 5820k will also not always guarantee a 4.5. at the end of the day the difference is...

    NVIDIA GeForce 359.00 WHQL Game Ready Driver For Assassin's Creed Syndicate

    Did you see me bring up any conspiracy ? all I said was the gameworks features require too much rendering power for very minimal IQ gain, I didn't say it's intentionally not optimized.

    Convince me to upgrade from my 660 to a 970 for newer games.

    As people said above, if you are happy with it keep it. if you encounter a game that you think will be a big time sink for you and it's running badly or looking awful and you can't do anything about it then think about getting a new card that's at least my mythology.

    GTX 980 Ti bottleneck?

    It's nice to see some people still rocking the old 750, I have the same CPU and since getting it back in 2010 haven't had the need or felt I needed to upgrade, rocked a GTX 280 480 580 and a 680 now and never felt that I was bottlenecked.

    Residue on the backplate

    I had the same thing with my 680 it's nearing 3 years old now and still rock solid I wouldn't worry about it it is most likely from the thermal pad's never bothered to take the card apart just wiped it and continued using but hey I might of just been lucky. Better wait for some expert opinion.

    GTX 880 and 800 Series to be More Powerful But Cheaper than the 700 Series

    8800GTX was 60-70% faster than the 7800GTX, GTX 280 was about 80-90% faster than the 9800GTX which was a refresh of the 8800GTX, the 780Ti is 50-60% faster than the 680 which is not the full blown chip. So a full blown Maxell being maybe 2 times faster than the 780Ti is nothing new. Someone...
