I upgraded most of my parts and I have my Intel i54690k, Asus GTX660ti, and 2x8 g.skill trident x. Just need a motherboard and a shitty hardrive. Any recommendations for a cheap motherboard that will support my left overs?

Since the motherboard is older I would think they would ship them with newer BIOS but there is a small chance that it may not be up to date. The problem is that once you get to the H97/Z97 motherboards that do support Devils Canyon they are really expensive. You could also try to find a board in the used market.

Gives me an error, "Some Intel B85 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Haswell Refresh CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions."
