Are you sure this is compatible with the 4790k? Because pcpartpicker its telling me the voltage exceeds the cpu's recommended maximum of 1.5V.

I'm not sure about PCPartPicker's opinion, on this but, I see several users, on Toms Hardware, with specs that already make use of this combination -- Along with the other comments that say the combo should work fine -- I'd say it works. Not to mention, I'm really not sure that the RAM's voltage will be affected by or affect the CPU voltage, in any way. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2280487/ram-4790k.html

...Yes....anything "socket 775" will fit & work well...the bios will auto-set the required voltages for you. It's actually a very good board!....I like ASRock boards.

Yes it will be compatible with it but the RAM is clocked at 1.65v for an lga 1155 motherboard. You should look for ram clocked at 1.5v. But if this is your only option then it will do just fine.

From my understanding it would depend upon the TDP/maximum temperature generated by the cpu. A 4790K - no, but a 4770s or 4789t - I believe so. Best to check the manufacturer's website.

I have a 4770k (1150 socket) and I run this system on my gaming computer. Generally the 1150 and 1155 sockets utilize the same fan mounting holes and if a product description doesn't specifically say 1150, but does specify 1155, the part will match up correctly.

All depends on the entirely configuration.What CPU? Will overclock the CPU?How many disks? SSD? 7200rpm?Watercooler? How many pumps?The short answer is yes, this PSU will support a regular configuration of 1 CPU i7 4790k with 2x R9 295, but if you overclock the CPU and overclock both R9 you will be more confortable with a 1500w PSU.

Yes, but you need the newest Bios Revision. (F9)http://www.gigabyte.us/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4487I recently upgraded to the 4790K and have had no issues.

It should be fine, but just. Im running an i52500@3.7 and my 780@1ghz with a Corsair AX750.. My system consumes around 450w at full load. You may want to try it out first and then upgrade your Psu if you need to, specially if you are going to OC. Which I assume you will. But again, it should be fine to be honest. Have you simulated your power consumption online?

Yes, I am using with a i7 4770K. I am using it in an HTPC and needed the limited height. I am not overclocking, if you plan to you might need a larger cooler.

Yes and yes - supports SATA 6 (10 independent channels) and seeing as a 4770K leverages a 1150 socket, it is compatible.

It won't if your motherboard isn't verified by the vendor to handle 220W cpus

I use an i7 4770k. Didn't have to update the bios with this board. As long as the processor you are buying is an Intel 1150 it should work right away. This board features 2 bios in case one is messed up. I tried to flash(update) my bios and the pc crashed deleting the bios. I flipped the switch to bios B and it works fine.

Just to add, EVGA has a CPU and Memory Support list for this MOBO: http://www.evga.com/support/motherboard/The 4790K is listed.

if it's the 1150 compatible than it shouldyou might run into memory clearance issuesI used the hyper 212 evo and it was close as far as the heat spreaders not touching , got about 1/8" to 1/4" clearance with the 212with the 212 and a 4770k had it OC'd to 4.4ghz and it only got to 60*c running Prime95 for 12 hours

of course NOT. i7-4770k is LGA-1150 socket, this is LGA-1155. get the Z87 Mobo

I would go with the 4790k if you choose to go that route. It is a very good processor with great overclocking potential. I personally went with a I7 4930k. And I absolutely love it.

Absolutely, I just finished building my rig with this mobo and the i7 4790k. Just put all the stuff together then power up.
