I am thinking about getting the new intel i7 4790k when it comes out in a few weeks. I currently have this motherboard http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CU4L4NQ/ref=oh_deta...
I was wondering of this would be compatible with the new CPU's and if i need to do a BIOS update how to do that. I currently have a i5 4670k, gtx 780ti, 16gb ram, corsair 750d.
any reply would be appreciated,
Thanks

If the mobos have support for the non "k" Then they will most likely have support for the upcoming 4790k

I'm starting a completely new build and it's my first one. I'm looking at the same z87 motherboard as well as the i7 4790k chip. I was wondering about the Bios update though. How would I need to go about updating it?

if you don't have a supported cpu to update the bios, take it to a shop. or send it to gigabyte for update. or it might have the latest already, depend on when the board was make.
