So I have come upon a free i7 4470S and I am wondering if I should reaplce my i5 4690K with it.

If i don't use it, it will go into my GF Overwatch/LOL machine. Neither of us are crazy heavy users, but I'm sure an i7 wont hurt.

 

Benchmarks list the proccessors as being almost identical.

i5 oc'ed to 4.0GHz  vs  i7 4470S 3.1ghz->3.9GHz

power usage is the same 

 

 

 

Current: R2600X@4.0GHz\\ Corsair Air 280x \\ RTX 2070 \\ 16GB DDR3 2666 \\ 1KW EVGA Supernova\\ Asus B450 TUF

Old Systems: A6 5200 APU -- A10 7800K + HD6670 -- FX 9370 + 2X R9 290 -- G3258 + R9 280 -- 4690K + RX480

The performance on the i7 will be slightly superior due to the hyper-threading but nothing gigantic... it's really up to you, put it on the machine you guys use the most I suppose.

I'd have to agree with Cadence, just put it in which ever system gets the most use or has the hardest time trying to process stuff.
