Yes they should work fine.

packersfan036 · Sep 8, 2017

the reason I'm asking is because the intel website says to use ddr3L

rgd1101 · Sep 8, 2017

check the motherboard support. but since you [strike]having [/strike] haven't bought it yet, don't buy it.

I'm currently using a asus maximus vll hero motherboard, and a i5 4690k, and want to upgrade to a i5 broadwell cpu

Kasper Jorgensen · Sep 8, 2017

Im almost certain it will work with standard ddr3 as Intel says 1.5v and ddr3l is only 1.35v.

ok cool thanks ill buy the cpu

packersfan036 :

Why? You can get a better CPU for less money, e.g. i5 7600k.

packersfan036 · Sep 8, 2017

ya but ill need a new motherboard and ram as well. I can get a i5 broadwell from someone for 150

TJ Hooker · Sep 8, 2017

You already have an LGA 1150 mobo (with 9-series chipset) and DDR3 RAM?

TJ Hooker · Sep 8, 2017

Ah, I see. In that case that's a decent CPU choice, although if you can find a 4690k for around the same price that would be better.
