Hey all,

So with my new pc I'm planning to build I have chosen to go for the i5-4570 cpu (3.2ghz) as it got some great reviews, the price currently on amazon is 200$. I've been looking over amazon a bit lately and it got me a bit confused as the i5-4590 cpu (3.3 ghz) costs 190$, so 10 dollars less than 4570. if this cpu has a higher amount of ghz aswell then why would it cost less than its previous model?

Thanks in advance.

If I would go for the 4590 would it increase my fps in games with that one little .1 ghz? (playing games like dayz, arma)

Hi
Yes, some Haswell refresh 2014 are cheaper but stronger, I don't know why, but theses two chips are almost the sames (just + 0,1 Ghz for 4590), just one thing, If you decide to go with i5 4590, go with a H97 motherboard (MSI H97M G43, GB H97 D3H, ASUS H97 plus and more .... ) to avoid some problems of BIOS update (H87 and B85 and other chips have a BIOS which support only Haswell 2013 CPUs)
