now my question is that is my motherboard compatible with my cpu yes i know the socket is 1150 for both but on youtube i saw a video which says its not compatible u got to update the bios and all

so now if i buy a stock cpu and motherboard put it together will it run good without a bios update ??

It'll work w/o any BIOS update, the 'K' version (4690k) requires a BIOS update. And secondly do not get that PSU, its crap, get a better quality one, any 500W+ from XFX/ EVGA/ SeaSonic/ Antec.

This is better:

Without any BIOS update, that's what I meant, and yes it'd work. No issues.
