upgrade from i7 920 to i7 4960k

[Kurgen]

my main gaming pc is as per sig, cpu is currently 90-98% on BF1.

I have a second PC with a z97 board 16gb RAM and a m.2 SSD, i5 4460, is it a worth while upgrade to basically swap the guts over between the 2 pcs and get an i7 4960k, if I get £100 for the i5 then the overall outlay is not much at all

xeon doesn't work overclocked tried that, and a lot of googling my board and revision wont overclock xeon

as per sig !

The 4960K is S2011 though and those boards are not cheap, so I don't think it would be exactly an economical upgrade.

Be easier sell that 4460 and buy a 4790 or 4770 - unless you have the i7 model wrong in your OP?

I posted wrong model oopsy upgrade to i7-4790K , and I have the z97 mobo and ram

went for the i7, temps where a little high, so i took the aio off again and fitted with the case flat on the desk and all sorted now.
