Little did I know back in 2014, just months after Intel released their state of the art i7-4790k 4 core 8 thread processor code named Devils Canyon, an unlocked cpu for system builders to over clock well beyond the base clock of 4ghz all the way towards hitting the magic 5ghz clock speed, that I would still be using my then £2,500 system more than 5 years on!

So what is it about the 4790k which means not only has it stood the test of time in terms of processing power, but that it actually costs substantially more to buy NEW or USED then when it first went on sale in 2014!

A remarkable CPU that has stood the test of time, which I doubt many of todays Ryzens 3000's and I-9's will be able to replicate.
