It's not worth it whatsoever as long as what you're doing isn't making you any money.

The i5 is plenty fast for a smooth workflow, as long as you're not working with 4k you're good.

Make sure you got an SSD for the uncompressed caching, as well as a lot of space on the scratch drive. RAM could be important, but without knowing specifics, impossible to say.


All the best!

for gaming its not a great increase and not for 150$ but on 3d rendering it is for sure 100% worth it
if you dont have the motherboard have you considered the broadwell-E or haswell-E cpus?
