Are you sure you didn't mean B85? Any chipset with a '7' in it (B75, H77, Z77, etc.) aka the "7 series" is LGA 1155 and only supports Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge CPUs. If you do have a B75 motherboard, you can't use Haswell or Broadwell. If you have a B85, an "8 series" board, it won't work either. Broadwell is only compatible with 9 series boards despite the 8 series being LGA 1150. http://www.eteknix.com/intel-8-series-may-not-be-compatible-with-broadwell-bi-directional-backward-compatibility-issues/
