Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.
CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

looking for upgrade for core i7-4790 cpu (alien.top)

I'm not very experienced with computer parts and so on so I decided to ask you guys, I have a Intel core i7-4790 and was looking for a upgrade because a lot of newer games are stuttering for me and I check my usage on task manager and I'm assuming it's my CPU causing it due to it almost being at 100% usage. I'm wanting to stick with Intel but wanting a more affordable upgrade but will last me another 4 years like my current one has.

Something like an i5 12400 will be a massive upgrade. You'll obviously have to upgrade your motherboard and RAM.
