Compatibility questions 4790 with BIOS 2202 27.10.2014

unknownmercyy · Mar 22, 2018

I'm thinking of buying a i7 4790 (non K) for my H81M-C motherboard.. My current bios version is BIOS 2202 27.10.2014..

So, my worries are.. will the CPU run without any further issues? Do I need a bios update?

for 4790 is 0705

No, you don't need to update the BIOS (the I7 4790 is supported since version 0705).

Great to hear it!!! Just one more thing.. is the pure rock slim good cooler for the i7 4790?

terry4536 · Mar 22, 2018

It is a small cooler, but should fit the socket. If space allows, I would choose a cooler with a 120 mm fan.

But will the pure rock slim cool the 4790 ok?

It will be an improvement over a stock cooler, but a 92 mm fan is going to be average at best. What height of CPU cooler does your case support?

What is your case?
