Compatibility note?

[bromargaming]

im trying to build my own pc and everything was compatible with each other until i decided to change the processor, here is the compatibility note i got:

 

is it fine and heres the build http://pcpartpicker.com/user/omaralkha/saved/#view=hQ6dnQ

 

• Some Intel B85 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Haswell Refresh CPUs.

It is compatible from a hardware perspective. However, some motherboards do not have the updated BIOS required to recognize the Haswell Refresh CPUs(Devil Canyon).

Change the mobo

Like the previous posts physically you should be compatible. But to be safe I would change the motherboard.

Get a Z97 if you wanna overclock or I think it's z87 if you don't wanna over clock.

Z87 boards can overclock. Z97 was released at the same time as Devil Canyon. The H and B chipsets are more limited in overclocking. Some I think can overclock, but most definitely cannot.

Given the parts and the price I don't know if he wants to OC. But it's up to him.

i mean i probably can but will have to end up buying more expensive cooler

[jprig6]

Do colors matter? And i would suggest going up around 50 on the mobo given the lack of options for that price?

How much more are you willing to spend on a CPU?

You have a CPU that cant be overclocked so you dont need to spend extra money for a "Z" motherboard. The one you have picked out will PROBABLY work but there's a possibility it wont. If it was made at a date after the CPU, which is highly likely because they've been out for a while, it will work JUST AS GOOD as any other. If it has been sitting in a warehouse, boxed up and just waiting since before the CPU came out, it wont work with that CPU until you put an older CPU in there. I suggest just getting that one and returning it if needed or buying the cheapest H97 motherboard you can find.
