Best CPU choice

[thiagoterleski]

I want to buy a new CPU, and i have some options:

• Core i7-3770K 3.5Ghz 8MB LGA1155 BX80637I73770K
• Core i7-4770K 3.5Ghz, 8MB, LGA 1150 c/ Intel HD Graphics (4ª Geração) - BX80646I74770K
• Core i7-4770 3.4Ghz, 8MB, (Turbo Boost até 3.9Ghz) LGA 1150 c/ Intel HD Graphics (4ª Geração) - BX80646I74770

Someone uses any of these mentioned?

Or can you recommend a model?

the value range can be between $ 300 and $ 400.

For years now, I've found cpubenchmark.net to be a very nice reference for CPU performance. Here's a link to the higher end processors you're looking at: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

Hello. I have a AMD fx-8350 and keyshot performs pretty damn fast on it. I compared it with a friend's I7 4770k , and the I7 is just a little bit faster , but it's not worth the extra money.
