Hi everyone,
I'd just like to get your thoughts on whether an I5- 4690k processor will do just as good of a job than my current planned cpu (an I7 4790). Here are the main things I plan to use my pc for:
Medium/High settings for games at 1080p at the most, using sony vegas pro 13
Video editing for 720/1080p quality videos for youtube.
Livestreaming at 720p at least once a week.
3D softwares such as 3DS Max and Blender, and rendering images with them. I'm a freelance modeler/animator.
Other specs currently include 16gb ram, a gtx 950 GPU, 1x 250 ssd and 1TB HD, and a 450w PSU,
I don't want the I7 4790k, as I know that's too powerful. Would the core i7 be too power inefficient for the above needs.?I'm not entirely sure how big the difference between an i5k and a core i7. I have enough in my budget for either, it's just a matter of choosing, and wanting to be as power efficient as possible.
Many thanks
