i5 4670k or 4690k

[DerpFromFinland]

Hello! My PC build is almost ready, but i still need to decide my CPU. I know i won't be getting an AMD one, as there are no mini-ITX or mATX mobos for the FX CPUs.

To the actual question: Should i get a i5 4670k or the new 4690k? There is a deal where i could get the 4670k and a Z87 motherboard for 260€, where as the 4690k is 230€ w/o the mobo. Is the "upgrade" worth the price difference?

No, it's not worth it. Not for that price difference.

stick to the 4670K as you motherboard (depending on the manufacturer) can update the bios to use the Devil's Canyon chips later on.
