Hello,

I have been searching and i cant figure this out. (Still new to computer hardware)

But are these CPU/MOBO Compatible?


CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K

MOBO ASUS P8Z77-V LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Thanks if anyone could tell me, I'm pretty sure they are from what i have learned, but i would like to double check before i order.

Oh and does the mobo have a pci express?

Yes the CPU and Motherboard that you listed are compatible, and in the future when your looking at CPUs and Motherboards a good way to tell if they are compatible is to look at the socket type.
The i5-3570k is a LGA 1155 socket and that Asus Motherboard is also a LGA 1155 socket.
