Hello, I've recently gotten hands on a Maximus VII Hero motherboard, and I wanted to upgrade my CPU along with the mobo.
I had planned to get the Devils Canyon CPU, but seeing that this has been pushed back to Q3 of this year, I am doubting I want to wait that long for the upgrade.
So I am here to ask if anyone has some suggestions for another CPU :)
The price limit is at 350$.

Thank you very much :)
 
Solution
The Devil's Canyon line is already out: i5 4690k and i7 4790k
The i7 is $330-340 but if your purpose is only gaming, the i5 is going to be more than enough.
