Help with new CPU

[Summitass]

Hello, I currently have a HP-Pavilion 500-119c and I upgraded the PSU to a EVGA 500 watt as well as upgrading my GPU to a GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked. I want a new CPU and theses are the ones I am thinking of Intel Core i5-6600k, Intel Core i7-4790 or Intel Core i7-4790 Devils Canyon. I want to make sure its compatible with my current build and if you could tell me the best without factoring cost and the best factoring cost that would be greatly appreciated.

the motherboard in that pc has a LGA1150 cpu socket, and that means that you can only use the i7 4790, the i5 6600k is better if you want to do video editing but you should still be good with the i7 4790

Your better off making a custom PC with a different motherboard...Thats what I would be doing.

you can't get the 6600k because its not the right motherboard, and why would you buy a 750 ti when there are better options for cheaper out there? Getting a 4790k with that motherboard would also be useless, as you can't overclock it with that moterboard.

I bought the 750 a while ago and it was the best for the price without overclocking and im not too worried about overclocking because it sounds hard and I don't want to break anything.

yh, i would recomend also upgrading the Motherboard and go for the skylake cpu (the i5 6600k)

note that if you buy a new motherboard and go for a 6600k, you'll also have to buy new ddr4 ram.

true, but i think it would still be better in the "long run"

if you want 16gb (recomended i think) it would be around 100usd 

but you cound by one 8gb stick and one more later when you have saved up a bit more 

make sure it is the exact same modell tho

again, plans on what you want to do, the 6600k is better for editing stuff and more then just gaming, but if you only want to game, then yh the 4790 is fine

what? you do realize you just said that a i5 does better than an i7 for video editing are you crazy?

im just saying what a pc enthusiast told me (bad spelling) he said that skylake is generally better for media work

it is not that much. http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-6600K/2384vs3503

yh, now when im thinking of it, he would have to buy a cooler too so all of this would reach 600usd including the cpu, you better of with the 4790

[Summitass]

So just to make sure if get the Core i5-6600k it will work with my current build and if I upgrade to a ASROCK Z170M it will still work? Also, if I upgrade to the ASROCK Z170M will it still work my GPU and PSU and the same question but with the Core i7-4790

ofcourse you will have to do a little research on what motherboard to get ect. but yes every thing should be compadible,

i have never seen such a low budget motherboard run a 750ti but if you are running that now then yes, it should work

no you would need to upgrade you cpu and you mobo. just get a 4790 that should work with no changes

any mobo can run any gpu as long as the slot is correct.

Are you saying that if I get a 4790 it will be compatible with my currently build and a new motherboard?

no your current build. don't get a new mobo just stick with your old one.
