Intel i7-4790K vs AMD Phenom X6 1100T

[HexxiumGaming]

In short I will be upgrading to an Intel based setup most likely, mainly for the far better memory options and support currently on the market. The question here is will a i7-4790K outperform my AMD Phenom X6 1100T I currently have despite having 2 less cores? According to cpuboss, the Intel would, but I am asking this community as you are likely far more knowledgeable.

Yes the 4790k is FAR more powerful than the Phenom x6 1100t. It wouldn't even be close.

I'm thinking this combo to be specific:

Motherboard: http://www.amazon.com/MSI-DDR3-Motherboards-Z97-G45-GAMING/dp/B00K23BYCI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1440184545&sr=8-1&keywords=intel+motherboard

RAM: http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-2400MHz-Desktop-CMY16GX3M2A2400C11R/dp/B00EUPV2RQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1440186340&sr=8-3&keywords=ddr3+ram

CPU: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KPRWAX8/ref=psdc_229189_t1_B00J56YSLM

How does that sound?
And yes, i am aware I'll likely need a new cooler for the Intel CPU (will accept recommendations here too)

The cpu will come with a cooler that will work just fine at stock speeds. You could save some money by NOT getting everything from amazon.

Thank you for your time and answers. I will check for price differences from Amazon to Newegg and others before buying anything, thank you very much
