It's a great CPU, but that's a horrible price. I just got one 2 weeks ago at Microcenter in Cambridge, MA for $280. http://www.microcenter.com/product/434176/Core_i7-4790K_40GHz_LGA_1150_Boxed_Processor. If you don't live near a Microcenter, even with any shipping charges it would still be a lot less than that.
