The motherboard is a HP MS-7826. An LGA1150 motherboard. I looked around for a good LGA 1150 Processor and decided on said i5. The issue is, the motherboard is Z87, and not Z97. I can't find a BIOS update anywhere on HP's site. Is it worth trying anyway or do I need a new motherboard?
I bought a i5 4460 for a motherboard a friend gave me. I have a problem.

http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c04383423.HP ENVY 700-306no Desktop PC has the same Motherboard with a Core i5 4460.The motherboard is also Z87,So since even HP Slid an i5 4460 on this mobo,Why not ?
The motherboard page on HP's site lists the supported processors and the 4460 isnt there. (http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03748942 processor upgrade information) Going to try it anyways when the processor gets here. Will keep you posted.
Thanks!

Got the processor, only there's an issue. The stock cooler wont fit in the holes for the push pins. This is because of the bracket on the back from the previous cooler which was liquid.

Im guessing the backplate should be removable.If Not,i recommend you put the previous cooler and check cpu temperatures.
