okay, my cpu now is i3-4130, it's very old, if I change my cpu to i7-4790 or i7-4790k, do I need to change my cpu fan as well?? thank you 😀
 
Solution
Yes, you will need to change it. i7 has 4 cores and 8 threads and much higher clock, so it heats considerably more than i3. But a decent air cooler will keep everything under control.
