Excellent performance/price ratio, great overclock, etc.
4 of 4 found this helpful So I replaced a G3258 that was in my gaming PC with this. This was the natural upgrade with my Z97 board. I don't know whether it is because my case has a built in fan or what, but I popped this in, and it overclocked to the default settings I had of 4.4 Ghz (for the G3258.) The temperatures are amazing with just the stock cooler, 70C (full load.) I was expecting to buy an after market cooler, which would've been a hassle to fit in my case, but I am happy to know I don't have to do that now. I put the G3258 in an HTPC, and now I have two systems that feel new. I also only paid $210 for this, which was nice considering I paid $60 for the G3258 last year, and this was retailing something like $240 at the time. So basically I got a G3258 and an i5 4690k for $270.
I mostly wanted this CPU because of the performance gains of a quad-core in gaming, but I didn't want to compromise on clock speed (which I like for emulation.) So far I can play multi-threaded games and more quickly perform multi-threaded functions like video rendering.
