So I'm looking to upgrade my pc and it seems that I have compatibility issues with my motherboard, ram and cpu stated by by one site but not by the other and some even stating it is not possible.

 

so I am trying to upgrade my current setup wich has a gtx750 ti a I5-4670k and 2 times Kingston - HyperX Fury White 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory so that I have 32GB of ram that all on a asus sabertooth z97 mark 2 motherboard.

 

so the problem that I have is I am trying to buy a Intel - Core i5-8600K 3.6GHz 6-Core Processor with a Corsair - H100i PRO 75.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler  and a gtx 1080ti and so do I wanna keep my ram, but I can't seem to find a new motherboard for the LGA1151 socket size that is compatible with ddr3 or is the cpu just not compatible with ddr3?

 

sorry I'm not great at english but I tried thanks time.

ddr3 is not compatible with that cpu/Chipset, you need to get new ram.
