The defference is 40$ and in my opinion it's not worth it, I just want to make sure.
My friend told me that I should take the 4690 in case i'd want to upgrade my GPU in the future. So should I go with the 4590 anyway?

More about : 4590 4690

Not worth it the performance difference is to low. Any modern I5 will play about the same with a good GPU.

$40 for a tiny 200mhz boost is not worth it. Put the money towards a better gpu if you can

I'm getting the R9 280x vapor-x for 220$ so I'm fixed there, now, it's just about saving money

You would not be able to tell any difference in gaming performance since it will more be driven by the GPU.
