Hi guys
The question of the thread is very broad - What I specifically mean by the question is this;
If I had an i5 at 4.2ghz and an i7 at 4.2ghz - is there any performance difference? (Imagining that there is no OC Potential for any CPU and they're are at base speeds)
In my situation, I'll be getting a 1080Ti and I want to reduce bottleneck - I have an i5 4670k 3.4ghz OC'd to 4.2ghz, - I'm thinking of upgrading to an i7-7700k which has 4.2ghz base clock - and attempting to OC up to around 5Ghz. This is an 0.8Ghz increase, If Ghz is the only advantage of an i7, will 0.8Ghz make that much of a difference?
