thekom · Nov 20, 2013

i have an oldie intel i7 920 overclocked to 4Ghz, should i get a new cpu if i want extra performance in gaming? or there won't be any noticeable difference (compared to an i5 4670K)?

Take a look at difference in a benchmark: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/47?vs=837

Moonsfang :

that benchmark is for the stock 2.67 ghz, mine is at 4.0 ghz which there is a big noticeable difference between each clock values, clock is, is it underpowered under its current state to a haswell cpu for example a i5 4670K?

What are your current specs? If you have a low-end GPU you will hardly see a difference if you upgrade the CPU.

I would say your CPU is still plenty capable. For gaming, I would probably look at a better GPU, depending on what yours is.
