the years, Intel has not provided consumers with groundbreaking performance through the different generations of its CPUs. The performance boosts have been minor.<\/p><p>The past few generations are based on the same manufacturing process, so you are not missing out on much. If someone already has a decent 8th generation process, then the jump to the 9th generation might not seem worthwhile.<\/p><p>These CPUs are roughly 3-4 years old, and that is why you can get some killer deals. Not to mention that they are still great for gaming and come with the essentials that you need, including 4 cores, 8 threads, and support for 32 GB RAM, if not more.<\/p><div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_63 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-673eae5f9cc8c\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #20232f;color:#20232f\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #20232f;color:#20232f\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-673eae5f9cc8c\" checked aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/best-lga-1150-cpu\/#Top_5_Best_LGA_1150_CPUs_for_Gaming\" title=\"Top 5 Best LGA 1150 CPUs for Gaming\">Top 5 Best LGA 1150 CPUs for Gaming<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/best-lga-1150-cpu\/#Best_LGA_1150_CPU\" title=\"Best LGA 1150 CPU\">Best LGA 1150 CPU<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/best-lga-1150-cpu\/#1_Intel_Core_i7-4790K_%E2%80%93_The_Best_LGA_1150_CPU\" title=\"1.

The CPU has an unlocked multiplier, which means that you can overclock it. The i7-4790K was the first Intel CPU that could run at 4 GHz across all cores out of the boss. This is an overclockable CPU so you can take the clock speed even higher provided that you have proper cooling.<\/p><p>4 GHz is excellent for gaming, and the CPU does come with 4 cores and 8 threads. In 2020, more cores and threads are coming to the mainstream, but game developers are not catching up as fast as you might think. Most mainstream users still use 4 cores for gaming, and only enthusiasts use more than 4 cores. 4 cores and 8 threads are ideal for gaming even in 2020. It is safe to say that you will be able to play pretty much any game with such a CPU in the upcoming few years, provided that you have a decent graphics card to do the heavy lifting.<\/p><p>The CPU uses the LGA1150 socket like all the other CPUs on this list, and we recommend using a Z97 motherboard with this CPU if you are interested in overclocking. You can use the CPU with Z87 motherboards, but you will need to update the BIOS, which could be tricky, keeping in mind that this is an older CPU.
