Will I see real life performance gains from i3-4160>i7-4470?

Hi,

 

Will I see real life performance gains if I just upgraded the cpu from 4160 >4770? The pc is my work pc. I have no trouble running photoshop and all Adobe cc full suite software, 3d viewer software, autodesk recap. I usually have 2*27" monitors on all the time with the third for customers when needed. Since I don't have a higher/powerful cpu, I am not sure if I am missing anything. 

 

 

my current setup is this :

i3-4160
512 GGB SSD SATA
16 GB RAM
GTX 770
2x 27"1440p monitor, 1x 1080p 24" monitor. 

 

P.S. This topic is in the wrong sub forum. Sorry for the mistake.

Youll definitely see a great performance boost in any CC applications, and just general usage

you will see a lot greater multithreaded performance, making your CAD experiences smoother. your clock speeds will also be much higher, improving single threaded performance. I used to use a 4770 with a 770 and it was a great machine.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Going from a 2c/4t i3 to a 4c/8t i7 is basically like adding a second i3 so you'll definitely notice the improvement.
