Is this a fresh build or are you just changing the motherboard. The CPU and motherboard fits but I can't promise there won't be some tweaking in the BIOS afterwards but I woulnd't think so.
yeah, Z77 mobo's are specifiqcly for 3rd gen intel core processors. so just put it in the CPU socket your good to go. another suggestion would be waiting for haswell / 4th gen intel core processors
Yes. The Core i7-3770K is supported with the BIOS version the motherboard was first released with.
But you'd be better off waiting another week or two and getting a Haswell CPU and Z87 motherboard.
I'm good with the 3770k , the Haswell is about 10% more performance wish i dont care too much !
I'm goin to make a hole new build with a 660 ti OC card and 8gb ram , I'm upgrading my cpu from a c2d so the 3770k chip will be a huge jump for me , like day n night
Thx for reply ..
