Despite the 500MHz clock speed advantage the Cadre i7-4790K produced the same 27GB/due south bandwidth of other Core i7 and Core i5 processors, with the exception of the quad-channel LGA2011 Cadre i7'south.

The fourteen% increase in clock speed gave the Core i7-4790K half-dozen% more L1 bandwidth and vii% more than L2 bandwidth than the 4770K, making information technology the fastest processor we tested.
