work the new i7-4790K on this board

Assuming you are trying to ask if the i7-4790K is compatible with this board, then yes, as the 4790K is a S1150 chip. http://ark.intel.com/m/products/80807/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-4_40-GHz#@product/specifications

No, its for the newer socked cpus (i3,i5,i7). Check your socket by finding out your current chip and or board. USE a free program like cpu-z to find out. Cheers.

No, that processor requires an LGA 1155 socket. This motherboard has the newer LGA 1150.

Yes, you can definitely do that... but if you have to buy a motherboard, get a new model, this one is fairly outdated. So unless you have some legacy issue (like i did), i would recommend you to get a newer model

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it.http://goo.gl/7108ON

Yes, but I'm bemused you are more interested in the sticker than the performance of this cpu!. For the record, I just 'upgraded' from my trusty FX9590 and Asus Formula Z to this 4790K and Asus Z97WS mobo which cost me £500 and has given me nothing but hassle. Check out my Amazon review 'over-hyped, over-priced and a pain in the neck'.

Sorry Frank. I'm still waiting for the CPU. I ordered this M/B and the 20th Anniversary Intel CPU. Haven't got the CPU in yet so have not fired up this board.

No. Requires FM2+ socket. FM2+ boards will support OLDER cpus, but not the other way around.

I had a easy time ocing but make sure u keep this in mind overlooking is all about the luck of the draw for the processors I could only get my 4790k to 4.6

Nope - that CPU is not going to work with that older board. See Intel here for compatible processors with that board: http://processormatch.intel.com/Processors/CompatibleProcessors?componentName=DP67BG

Yes. This CPU is for socket 478. The better question would be if your motherboard support this CPU.Please check your MB Mode for cpu supportl.

It's compatible with the board, but the i7, i5, & i3 processors for that socket only support up to 1600 mhz, so unless you're intending to overclock your ram by 1000 mhz, you might want to bump it down a bit.

If it has an LGA 1155 socket. Look up your motherboard. But you probs need a new one for a new processor.

The i7-4790k has an LGA 1150 socket, whereas the i5-3330 that you first purchased has an LGA 1155 socket. If you want to upgrade to the i7 chipset you'll need the i7-3770k which also has the LGA 1155 socket. Hope this helps.

Hi from Ukraine! Forget about i7. 4690k all you need. For new games will need to buy a graphics card. Editing +.

I believe so IF you have the proper BIOS version. According to the Gigabyte website the cpu is only supported with Bios Version "F4" or later. The cpu must also be revision S1 or later (some may call this the stepping code). It is not clear to me how you might upgrade if the I7-4820 is the only CPU you have. Please note: I have had very limited success with Engineering Samples (ES) CPUs with my Gigabyte motherboards (GA-X79-UP4, GA-X79S-UP5). My advice is stay with the retail releases.

Yes ,It will and you can easily overclock this processor with this board. This is my computer board on one of my computers which I have the i7 4770k running at 4.5 ghz. I bought the 4790k to build a new system but decided to purchase the Z97 to build on. So now I have both. I prefer the Z97 because it is easier to work with but both boards work well for me. BIOS updates are easy to do on both. Z97 has more updated features. If you buy either board you must update the bios before you start tinkering.
