Why is the 6700K cheaper than the 4790K?
Am I missing something?
Finer grain of sand, OP

One's still in production, the other is not
The former is now a legacy item that caters to those with legacy motherboards. Is it still cheaper to go from a 4690K to a 6700K after the mobo? Not everyone is so fortunate to live near a Microcenter.
Intel does not lower prices on their previous gen tech. They never have.

"legacy"
The 4790K is a year older, retard.

So the moral of the story is....?
Should I upgrade from a 2nd generation Sandy Bridge to a 6700k or 4790K?
Tests are pretty conclusive that there's a massive performance boost from a 2nd generation to a 6th generation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sx1kLGVAF0

quality z97 boards are hard to find and if you do find one it's going to be stupidly expensive.
go for skylake and ddr4.

It is no longer being produced and it uses a deprecated chipset. I'm sorry but that's legacy hardware. Intel moves fast.

>now live 4 and a half hours from the nearest microcenter
Why even live
