4690 vs 4590

[amr sameh]

i know ofc that the 4690 is better than the 4590 , but what i am asking is: does it provide that 30$ better performance? does it justify that price difference??(it may be less but in my country it is 30$)

My build is primarily for gaming with light video editing, light rendering and photoshop. 
the build is as follows:
Asus z87-a
cpu: 4690/4590
gpu: g1 gaming gigabyte gtx 970
ram:hyperx beast 2400 mhz 2x4 gb
1 tb wd blue
seasonicc m12 ii evo 620 psu
Any recommendations?
ik i wouldnt need a z__ mobo but i am planning to sli in the future and h__ dont have that feature.

There isn't too much of a difference, but for the sake of 30 bucks, I'd get the 4690 for the higher clock speed which could be handy for rendering.

If Non K version of the 4690, then no.

The .2ghz difference isn't really noticeable...A 4690k would be worth the extra money seeing as it can be pushed to 1ghz+ higher, but a normal 4690 isn't really worthwhile. 

 

I would also go with a z97 board + 4690k or z87/97 (whichever is cheaper) with an i5-4570.

Wow, I thought it was like 0.3/4GHz difference. FORGET MY POST OP

i'll tell u something. here in my country, a 4690k is 30$ more than the 4690 and 55$-60$  than a 4590. add the cpu cooler cuz if i am getting a 4690k i ll overclock and i will need a decent cpu cooler. the hyper 212 evo is 40$. that is about 70-95$ more. I will be better getting a 4790 non k version. it is better than any 4690k oc'ed and has hyperthreading. So overclocking isnt an option now,not really.

Just calculate how much does tgat $30 is in percamtage of the full price of 4690.

Then compare thay with cost of 4590, and based in benchmarks resulta compare if that difference percantage matches the performance difference.

It's a 200MHz difference, so in theory the 4690 could perform a little less than 6% faster than a 4590 in the best case. In the real world it'll be less than that though.

And if 6% = $30 then answer is : NOT WORTH !

6% = $30

60% would then be $300 which could maybe justify the price but when u talk about 6% then its un-noticable.
