Hello :D Paired with 750 ti

[@Kamex]

The 4460 was part of my first build. Honestly the only reason why I upgraded to the 4790k and then the 9900k was mainly because I was greedy and wanted more fps in my games and faster render times for videos. It was a very capable CPU

I had one but upgraded to a 4 core 8 thread xeon due to the cpu struggling a little bit in games like red dead 2 and gta online. Now I have no issues

It was also my first desktop cpu. Got it in late 2015. Before that I had just laptop. It was such an upgrade when I went from cheap laptop to i5-4460 and gtx 960 :D games looked awesome. Now I have i5-10600kf + rtx 3070 and I barely play any games anymore.

Same... I don't understand it though how is it so entertaining to see benchmarks of old hardware. Maybe it's because how you really gotta think to make a good gaming rig and budget at the same time. Maybe it's that. It's fun to watch either way.

[@yunalesca_night_sky8998]

Detz I think it’s fun to see how modern day hardware compares to the hardware of the olden days. Just to think that a gtx 780 was once the god of all graphics card and it has now been superseded by multiple generations.

I think cause when you benchmark older hardware you dont fully know what to expect and are pleasantly surprised when it runs well. When it comes to new powerful hardware, it running great is expected.

Made a new build August last year. Old PC was a Intel 3570K running on a Gigabyte Z77-DS3H Motherboard; 24GB RAM, R9 290, 1080p 60hz monitor Old PC did everything I needed it to do though at lower settings. Had the main parts of the old PC for 7 years, only upgraded due to the motherboard slowly dying on me, PC randomly would not POST. Discovered that any RAM in slots 1/2 caused failure to POST. OK, run at 16GB RAM in slots 3/4. Occasional fail to POST in slot 3 a few months later. Could not be without the PC... Upgrade time. New PC: AMD 3700X, MSI mpg x570 gaming pro carbon wifi, 32GB RAM, RTX 2080, 1440p 144hz monitor + 1080p 60hz secondary monitor (old primary, now in portrait).

Back in late 2019 i rebuild the i5 4460 for the little Brother of my Girlfriend with my old hd5870, saddly the gaming Performance in fortnite was absolute bullshit he allready had a playstation and i needed the money from my used 1060. But now i got a broken 980ti from a friend, i gona Bake the 980ti and the R9 290 maybe the i5 4460 will go Strong again!

[@kaneogz]

What a rollercoaster of emotions. Amazing journey for your 4460 lol

[@tomfrumtarn]

This was my first 'gaming' processor paired up with a GTX950. Used them for around 4 years until recently upgrading to an i7-4770k (4th gen best I can do with the MB) and a 1660 Super. Decent cpu but could not run Warzone with any degree of stability, used to crash constantly with no explanation. No problems since upgrading.

[@gangigooga7710]

Just upgraded from this to a ryzen 7 3700x! It wasn’t a total monster but definitely a beast budget wise!

[@MrKarco]

Had a 4570 (essentially the same chip) but upgraded due to frame drops in apex and pubg while running an RX 580 8gb. Upgraded to r5 2600 and couldn’t be happier!

[@ushanka_dog6975]

Im new to pc gaming and this will definitely improve my old system

[@Doobie3010]

The Haswell line might well have been Intels last value hurrah,given their current woes/delays/stocks.

[@MetalJody1990]

Before I watch, I'm gonna say it's just okay in 2020. It's amazing for 7th gen games. I went from this cpu to an i7-4790 and it was so worth it.

[@MetalJody1990]

Oh yes. Very noticeable.

[@MetalJody1990]

That's up to you. I only got the i7 because I didn't want to buy a new mobo. Ryzen is the better choice in the long run, especially if you plan on getting a next gen RTX gpu. If you're gonna play lots of 8th gen games for years to come, a 4790 will suffice.

[@NaahBruhX]

I bought a z97 board and an i5 4690k, 8gigs of Ram and a power supply for around 100Euros in your currency...Added some Ram and Ssd, and it's a beast considering the budget..It runs like a charm with my Rx 560.

[@therealvbw]

I use only an i7-2600s daily, superb performance especially for the power consumption, and decent temperatures. It's also a life saver if your motherboard is limited on CPU power. Cinebench R20 score 885. For the £60 I paid for it, I recommend!

[@TheRobMozza]

A Kent man (like myself) excellent! Especially loved the Manston bit! Flown outta RAF Manston many times myself!!

[@VerbyWerby]

I upgraded from a G3258 as well but to a core i5 4570 non K that I picked up used for £100 about 5 years ago. Upgraded to a R5 3600 around this time last year and I don't regret it one bit!

[@dabombinablemi6188]

My i5 4440 still does well in most games. Newer ones however made me glad I switched to a 4790K (2 years later), and now a 3700X (couple of months ago). Quad cores just don't do as well as they used to (I saw improvements in Skyrim, FNV and FO4 with each upgrade due to my mod lists).

[@kimiariffin2046]

Is a 4790 (or a 4770 for that matter) that much better compared to the i5’s of that generation? Im currently running a i5 4570 and am still not sure if i should spend more by going for a ryzen cpu or just save and get a 4th gen i7 instead?

[@dabombinablemi6188]

@@kimiariffin2046 Yes, an i7 is that much better (even an i7 4770). That being said, the price of 4th and 5th gen i7 is still insane though - they are holding their prices better than an iPhone. So it may be worth just going straight to Ryzen at this point. A 3300X on the lower end (faster than the 4790K by a decent amount) or a 3600. If you can afford a 3700X, it consumes less power at stock settings (and especially under Eco mode) than a stock 4790K, and is faster single threaded even with the i7 at 4.8GHz.

[@thatotherchannel1682]

Rocked one of these until last year with a slight upgrade to an i5 4570. Old Haswell i5s are really starting to struggle about now.

[@ianweber9248]

The system that ultimately became my main gaming rig originally started out with one of these. I found it, along with an ASRock H81M-ITX motherboard and 16GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600 RAM in a pile of junk. The lack of an all-core turbo and low overall boost clocks had me contemplating replacing it with an i3-4340 I scored at the same time, but I happened upon a 4590 instead. That gave way to a 4670 and finally a 4770 before I replaced the board/CPU with an E3-1241v3 in an Asus H97I-PLUS board after the ASRock seemingly developed issues with its fan controller.

[@StrixWar]

used this cpu for years. now have a i5-8400 and will be getting the i9 12th gen later this year

[@demirneslan3960]

2014-2023 i5 4460 still using it

[@bitesized0]

Been using this for the past 5 years, as well as the GTX 750 Ti. Finally upgrading to i7 10th gen, with GTX 1660.

[@tagginondawal3961]

My brother in law wanted to get into PC gaming. While I didn't go with this one, I had a 4440, and paired it with a GTX 970. Works fine for him. Works plenty fine for him and the games we play.

[@GeNeRJaSoN]

Core i5 4460 with an GTX 1660 super performance?

[@RockyRacoon5]

I just bought a R7 3700x!!! I'll miss you dearly 4460, you served me well.

[@fortunateson6070]

My gaming PC still has a 2600k, when it couldnt keep up with my 970ti a few years ago I finally overclocked it and it took a huge overclock up to 4.5Ghz with 38C idle temps on the 212 evo cooler

Would love you to do a video testing older hardware running the new Ms flight sim.. The specs are high for the game but just what can older kit do!

I just sold my i5 4690k and bought a r5 1600af because it have more cores and threads, wat u guys think about my upgrade?! :))

[@djmiscreola9999]

I still have my i5-4590 paired with Rx570 and still running most games pretty well!

[@ZetaRidge7]

Good thing my i5 4460 on my backup rig is still capable of running some modern games this year. :)The Haswell platform was really ahead of its time.

[@thomasrayner5301]

You should remake the video you made a few years ago about the best pc parts under £10 cos a lot has changes since then. Also i think you should make some more merch cos if you do i would try persuading my parents to let me get a mug like you had before (that was before i was into pc building). Also i have just ordered my pc parts and i ordered a dell optiplex 790 and i am putting in an i5 2400, upgrading the ram to 8gb, upgrading the psu, adding a gtx 770 (2gb version. I think theis will be fine even though i saw your video the other day about it because i would only be playing games like minecraft and overwatch), adding a 1tb hard drive and a 120gb ssd

Currently use this! Waiting for my 2600x and a320m-s2h to arrive soon.

[@ahmedst290]

Why a320 with ryzen 5 2600x? Get something like B350 so you can overclock it.

Had this CPU when it was brand new for 200 euros. 6 years ago it was a beast. Still holds up well, but not on a primary rig.

[@4real526]

i5-4460 paired with RX 470 4gb still doing well. Thinking about upgrading to i7-4770/4790 cause i don't wanna change whole platform. I guess it is great time for pc building as prices of ALL pc parts are getting so affordable.

[@TheEarlPH]

Is it worth it getting this cpu? i have a rx560 and want to upgrade my Old amd a6

My primary desktop is still rocking a 4790k from several years ago, and still able to play AAA titles without too much hassle, usually on medium settings for my poor GTX970 at 1080p
