Man, the i5 2500K @ 4.5GHz (started at 5GHz but tuned it down a little) has been solid for me since 2011. It's ridiculous that a 6 year old CPU is still pulling along like this. I still see no reason to upgrade the CPU at this point. FlameOn has the same setup as me for the same amount of time. It's just had fantastic longevity.
