Pros & Cons
Pros
For those unwilling to upgrade both memory and motherboard in order to get skylake, this makes the most sense. Easy to cool - i have single 140mm fan on low profile heat-sink that never goes faster than 900rpm with max temps around 70 c. Cons:-skylake... Read More
The x97 is far from dead with this chip and some good 16-32gb ddr4 2400+ memory. The igp is vulkan/dx12 compatible-if you play most games like me, and want something to step up to vr with, this is the perfect match with the best vr-quality vpus out th... Read More
Cons
The broadwell series processors have hardware defect(s) which may or may not be fixed depending on the model and bios revision of your system. There are many signs intel no longer cares about the dektop.

Price
If you can get this for $300-320 then get this instead of 4790k.
3ghz and not one ounce of regret in purchasing it for $299 when i did.
Save the money and be happy with this chip.
Competitiveness
This chip outpaces even the x99 with the 5830, as well as 4790k at 4.
Now i would not pay more than about $400 for this cpu and in reality if it does cost more than that just go with an 8700k or a ... Read More

Just because it doesn’t have a k and they put a c there instead does not mean it is locked it is a fully unlocked chip and you can overclock it

Now i would not pay more than about 400 for this cpu and in reality if it does cost more than that just go with an 8700k or a chip of similar caliber also if you have a 4790k i really wouldn’t advise upgrading to this chip because they really isn’t that much more performance over it

However if you have an i5 this would be a pretty decent upgrade
