My i7-4790k still rips. Granted, it only rips on a few cores at a time, and it's missing some of the bandwidth and features and functions and stuff that newer processors get, but it also lets me disable TPM and shit and didn't support Windows 11 and forced me onto Linux, so I'll always be eternally grateful to it for that.
