My question is: Will my AsRock FM2A75 Pro4 be able to support the following upgrades?

 

ASUS GTX 770, Corsair builder series CXM 750W Modular psu, Samsung 840 EVO and an Intel Core i7 4770K

the fm2a75 is an amd board and therefor will NOT support a 4770k, you would need a z87 or z97 board to use that cpu

NO!

 

That board is for AMD CPUs! You need something with Z87 or Z97.

Is there an AMD CPU out there that's of the same specifications so I wouldn't need to go and get a new motherboard? I'm currently using an AMD athlon 760k.

Yeah, I think I'll just dumb the new SSD for now and get a new motherboard. Thanks for the help.
