I didn't get it because it was washable, though that's nice. I got it because I wanted a sturdy keyboard with short-travel keys and not too much resistance or noise. It's great, nice feel.
This processor is really a beast. I used to have a really bad one which only offered my 2.9 GHZ, and it was a Dual core. Of course such a processor was a massive upgrade, now games and apps no longer lag in anyway and they launch as soon as I click the icons.The 4790k is really good when compared to other processors specially the 4770 since Intel improved the heat management in this chip giving you more overclocking potential.
I love this thing! Pretty sure I won't need to worry about upgrading my CPU anytime soon. Install was easy although I didn't even try using the supplied cooler. I had it sitting under a Corsair Hydro h105 and it stays around 32*C with web browsing, watching HD video, music, and Office use. When playing Diablo 3, it will hit 50*C. Tomb Raider on maxed out graphic settings see 60*C and it runs SMOOOOOOTH. I'm sure temps get higher during some of the more intense scenes but I haven't seen it happen yet. I have it overclocked at 4.4ghz and run PNY GTX 770 OC with it. I only have the cooler plus 2 intake+1 exhaust fans moving air in a mid-tower. I will probably get one more higher RPM fan just for piece of mind though.
easily overclocked to 4.3 without touching any voltage haven't gamed with it yet (since i had to upgrade motherboard as well)overall pleased with the product.

I kept my old computer running waaaay past its good by date (2004 HP with a P4). When I finally decided to build a gaming rig I had to have an i7 and I'm glad I waited until the 4790K came out. Its just a monster. If you need a quad core intel...be nice to your future self and get this instead of an i5.
