Hi.
I feel that time has come to upgrade my old boy i4790k as I'm reaching 100% more often than before. What CPU (Intel) would give me significant improvement? Is it even possible to get 50% more power with newer CPU's or it's more like 10-20% max?
I really wonder how much of more processing power I can expect from newer CPU's than mine.
I need to mention that I'm not high profile or work for such company so I can't afford absolutely newest CPU's (these are overpriced anyway). But I do like to hear opinions how they compare to.
I'm using cpu hungry plugins for mixing and synths like Repro5. I can't squeeze any more juice from software side. CPU is overclocked to reasonable risk-free level.
