I use i7 2600k at 5.0 GHz for some time. Probably best option for ordinary human.

- ddingus 11y agoInteresting! I'm running this one: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K at 4.x Ghz (currently 4.2 for long term big problem stability) What does your setup look like? Cooling, RAM, etc...? And is it good for long term, like say crunch on it for a week type problems?
- jkot 11y agoWater cooling from Antec, it fits into regular desktop case. Under load it makes sound like hoover. Some cheap RAM, some motherboard for $200, 500 Watt PSU. I use it for IDE (Scala compiler is slow). No problem with stability, it ran a few times over weekend at full load. Maximal temperature about 90C. I have put quite high voltage. Over summer it goes down to 4.8GHz.
- ddingus 11y agoNice! I'll need to pick up a new machine soon. Might give this a go to compare with my existing 4.3Ghz machine.
