[SOLVED] How much i7-4790k better than i7-3770k in 3d modelling work?

[Lancelotsan]

I'm prepare to buy a PC for 3d modelling. However, in my nation, a combo of i7-4790k more expensive than i7-3770k nearly 200$.

So, I wonder how much CPU i7-4790k better than i7-3770k in 3d modelling work? Is it really worth for that price?

Thank you for helping. ^^

You're comparing a 4th gen to a 3rd gen Intel i7 processor. Both are different platforms and architectures. Mind if I ask what you're entire system specs look like? You're not just buying a processor to runt eh system, rather the other parts to give you a system/package.

List your specs for both, like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

i7-4790k has ~12% higher max turbo clock than i7-3770k. That's the main performance difference.
But yes - they use different sockets and are not interchangeable.

Sorry for made you wait, this is the specs of these two PC:
1/ CPU: i7-4790k
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Formula; But I still finding Asrock Z87 Extreme.


2/ CPU: i7-3770k
Motherboard: Asrock Z77 Extreme4


Beside CPU and Main, these remain part is the same:
RAM: 4 x DDR3 8gb G.SKILL Ripjaws X
SSD/HDD: 1 ssd 1TB; 1 HDD 4TB
GPU: GTX 1080
PSU: Corsair RM1000x
Chassis: still finding a case with can put any vga which have the length 30cm
OS: Win 10

Thank you for help.

Another thing you may want to consider is some bench marking, which of course you need to take with a grain of salt due to how it's done. When looking at some of these charts, consider if it was done for gaming, rendering, audio etc. For example, 7 days to die may run like a pile of garbage even on an i9-9900k + 2080TI because it's poorly optimized but something like Logic might run well even with 64 tracks running at once, even with half the computing power.

Asus Maximus VI Formula - is really expensive board. That's what makes most of the price difference.
