I've decided to upgrade my PC recently. Does anyone know what the best lga 1150 cpu I could get for around £100 is, or if I should invest in getting a new motherboard to support a better and cheaper cpu?
Thanks
Personally unless you can get the chip for super cheap wouldn't spend that kind of money on such an old chip. I don't know why resale is so high on old chips but it is. Also to my knowledge the 4460 is a DDR3 chip not DDR4.
Anyway its up to you to weigh the cost benefits of either spending money on an older chip or saving up for a new Mobo, RAM an CPU.
The 4790K is the best on the platform but as a result still tend to have a high resale value. The 4770K is a very close second but is generally cheaper and I have seen them for around $100
