Intel cpu 1150 socket with more than 4 cores

I own the pentium g3258 and plan on upgrade by the end of the year.

What intel cpu's have more than 4 cores, i am a little confused, and since dx12* will use up to 6 cores, it may be good idea to get one.

thx

i7 have 4 real cores and 4 hyper threaded cores. other then the i7 you have to look at the server line of intel cpu.

Any of the socket 1150 i5 and i7 are quads, also the E3 xeons.

smorizio is correct for 1150 based i7s, however there are i7s that run on socket 2011 and 2011 v3 (not compatible with your motherboard) which have 6 and 8 cores.

Any chance that you know if the i7 will benefit from the 4 hyper threaded cores in dx10?

Do you mean DX12? DX10 is pretty old.

Yeah extra threads will help in DX12 apparently.
