Posted January 2, 2014 I will be building a new pc very soon and have opted to use the i7 4770k as I will be doing a lot of video editing. How much of a difference does hyperthreading make with editing? Is it double? And also how much better is streaming with hyper threading enabled?

Posted January 2, 2014 There's no 'double' or anything. You just get less hiccups. Edit: As for gaming, you get a bit of performance for some games but will likely have the same performance 99% of the time.

Posted January 2, 2014 No double, but you will notice it being a lot more fluid and faster TorCorsair Obsidian 650D - Intel 4770K CPU - Gigabyte G1 Sniper 5 - ASUS GTX 780 Direct CU 2 - Kingston Beast Hyperx Beast 16 GB RAM - Corsair AX 1200i PSU - Samsung EVO drive 750 GB - Corsair AF series 120mm fans - Corsair H100i - Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013 edition - Razer Ouroboros - Razer Manticor - Windows 7 - Beyerdynamic MMX 300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 2, 2014 a 4770k will be around 30% faster than a 4670k when ALL threads are used Hey there.

Posted January 2, 2014 I use Premier Pro and Photoshop all the time, AE only occasionnally, and I have a 4670K, I can already tell you that if you really aren't the kind of person that likes when the renders are rendered just seconds faster, I can already tell you that you won't feel the difference. But yeah, you can still feel the difference but not THAT much IMO. ＶＩＤＥＯ ＧＡＭＥＳ Max Power Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 2, 2014 In Premier Pro and Lightworks, I noticed a slight bump in renders when editing small video samples. With larger files, I noticed the hyper-threading much more. After I overclocked my CPU, only THEN did I notice it enough to feel that it was worth it. But I don't normally edit large files. If you're rendering massive files, you'll notice the difference more.

Posted January 2, 2014 So you've used a 4770k before and not noticed much of a difference in comparison to a 4670k? I actually went from a 2500K to a 3770K and that's where I noticed the difference. Part of that is of course due to the generational upgrade but even taking that into account, I noticed a bit of a difference. But if you're not using large files, it won't be as noticeable.

Posted January 2, 2014 So you've used a 4770k before and not noticed much of a difference in comparison to a 4670k? I did, but not so much to say that I absolutly need a 4770K, I borrowed a friends 4770K when my 4670K was being replaced, he switched for a 4960X, that's why he let me borrow his used 4770K, and yeah, It didn't really made me want to spend a bit more and get a 4770 just to have a bit more power, but that's just my opinion.

How much premier work would you say you do? I will be doing big projects with Premier Pro, After Effects and Photoshop all open at the same time.

Posted January 2, 2014 Well I do notice it in Photoshop for example, but yeah only when I edit like huge files, and apply tons of efx on pictures- I went from an i5 to i7 ( mobile cpu's but the i7 is a quad core, and i5 was a dula core) and the difference was huge.

Posted January 2, 2014 What would you classify as large files? I saw more of a difference in rendering videos that were 20-30 mins+. Shorter videos (like for youtube) ddn't show too much of an increase.

Posted January 2, 2014 It sounds like the i7 fits your usage. I agree. And check around too. If you have a MicroCenter anywhere near you, buy it from them. I only get my CPUs from them because they sell them so low but you have to pick up in store.

Ok thank you Yeah unfortunately I live in the UK so I'll have to order it from Amazon or Scan or somewhere else.
