If you're LGA-1150 motherboard supports it, go 4790K
10 of 10 found this helpful I had a 4770k that died and I needed a new processor. I got the 4790k. This processor runs at 4.0GHz stock and boosts to 4.4GHz without any overclocking. It works well and consistently (for the week or so that I have used it.)
Using a GTX 1080, I am playing Destiny 2 and Assasin's Creed Origins origin at 1080p 60FPS with no problem at all. The processor is fast, and easy to install, but there is a possible problem: My motherboard does support the CPU, but I had to upgrade the management engine and BIOS before I put in the new processor. Before I did this, the board did not recognize the processor and would not post. This is *not* a CPU problem, but an older motherboard problem.
It now runs flawlessly, and i don't think I will even overclock it. It runs just fine as is.
So, If you have a Haswell motherboard with plenty of ram, and want to squeak by for another year or two, try the 4790k.
