So I am about to build my first gaming rig, and have trouble with deciding the right CPU. I have a 200-isb budget for it. My planned mobo is the as rock Z87 killer. A 970 strix, 8gb cl9 ram, 1 ssd, a sharkoon t9 value case, a scythe mugen 4 spj cooler. I am mainly planning on playing rpg's and rts's. However a fps or two will also find itself on my hard drive.

An i7 5960X will not even fit in a z87 board, and you would be WAAY overspending on your CPU. For a z87 board I'd recommend a. i5-4670K

 

@AIO, What is your budget for the whole thing?

he right here

 

Z87 may support Broadwell if there is a BIOS update

 

otherwise the Z97 will be the next chipset to support it again with a BIOS update

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

maybe but mobo maker may have a secret BIOS update like they did with H81, B85, H87 and H97 making them OC board too

from what i've heard broadwell desktop chip would never be a thing those are meant for mobilde devices and lap-top...skylake is the 5th generation desktop processors from intel.

OC'ing is something COMPLETELY different than a new CPU...

That was the broadwell M launch in 2014, Broadwell for the Desktop is Q2 2015.

yeah make sense and then they would release skylate in Q3 2015?! so the broadwell CPU's would be like a 2 months thing?...that won't make sense at all.

Intel also sell all their ROMs and Platform Modules.

Besides board markers simply use a framework such as AMI, Phoenix or Insyde and skin it and change the names, then implement the driver support and Intel's CPU microcodes. (Microcodes are the bit you'd add to support new CPUs)

Ah that was the word i was looking for. I kinda forget microcode. When i spoke about it with the 860k and A10. T_T

Z87 will not support broadwell . and you don't need bios update on Z97

Z87 isn't stated to support broadwell*

 

And to run broadwell on Z97 you'll need a UEFI update.

I wouldn't bet on either way.

 

Very likely, yes. In the past, you pretty much always needed a BIOS(UEFI) update for any CPU that wasn't out when the board was produced. I'd be really surprised, if there wouldn't be BIOS updates all over the manufacturers' websites when desktop Broadwell are out.
