I'm up in the air between the older i7-4790k or the newer i7-6700. My PC would mostly be used for gaming and streaming (Arma 3 mostly) as the most intense tasks I can think of. I'm pretty sure there's not a huge difference but in this link: http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-6700-vs-Intel-Core-i7-4790K/3515vs2384 the 4790k seems to have better specs when it comes to the processors speed. The 4790k is only $22 more, it has a higher TDP and older technology. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'd like to have the better performing CPU for only $22 more but is there something I'm missing here that I should definitely go with the skylake 6700 because of newer technology? I don't plan on overclocking I just think it's badass that the 4790k is 4.0 GHz & turbo's to 4.4 GHz as well seems to crush every other CPU out there for single core performance. Please give me your thoughts, thanks.
Also if you do choose one and have a cooler recommendation please which one is a good quality fan for the CPU.
