Works great
I was looking for increased speed, coming from an older amd processor and that's exactly what I got. Only thing is that the site doesn't say that this processor has limited overclocking. The 4790k does not. Wish I would of knew that. Otherwise works great

As expected - Perfect
Only had the custom build together for roughly a month so far but have not encountered any issues at all. Running Windows 8.1 Pro.
