Intel i5 4570 vs 4670

BothBrothers · Mar 31, 2014

I'm building a computer and I'm gonna buy most of my parts from my local pc store, and here are the prices. 4570: $229.99, 4670: $279.99. Is there a huge difference?

no, get the 4570.

+1

Save the $50 and put it toward something else.

envy14tpe · Mar 31, 2014

get the 4570 at those prices.

Rationale · Mar 31, 2014

They should be about the same price, seeing as the performance is almost identical. As others have said, get the i5-4570.

What if the price difference between the MOBO+4670K and a MOBO+4570 was £70, would it be better to get the 4570? Wouldn't the 4670K last longer since you have the ability to OC at a later date?

cynelic :

Not enough longer to justify the much higher cost. It's already a stretch to pay $20 more to OC on Intel CPUs under a budget. 70 pounds is way too big of a difference to justify overclocking.

Okay, thanks.

Would you prefer to go for the second build then? (£650 budget with RAM/HDD already purchased)
