I have no clue. I am not an expert in the abilities of this processor but it performed great for me and my requirements.

The Z87-G1 takes the i7-4770K. It needs a bios update for the newer Devil's Canyon CPUs like the 4790. You should get the MSI Z97-G41 for the i7-4790k. It's bios already supports that CPU.

The bios version that came with mine didn't support my processor (i7 4820k) all I did was load the latest bios on to a USB and follow the instructions and in less than 10 minutes it was up and running. The instructions for updating the bios are very simple, you don't need to install anything to update the bios, all you need to do is have to motherboard connected to the power source.

Sorry, I don't know, I need to get a new mother board for mine, and am not sure what one I can use, to upgrade to the fastest Mother Board I can use with the processor. I have looked the charts online only find them confusing.

The Bios would need an update, I suggest going for a Z97 board, which you should easily be able to find for a similar price.

I got REV 1.0 but I wouldn't expect any noticeable improvement added to 1.1. The REV 1.0 that I received already has the f4 bios and I don't really need to update to f5 version because I don't see any use of it in the soonest foreseeable future

Really Depends on how old your motherboard is. I am using one of the first made intel based duo boards. Works fine. If you have a G5 or older I would check with the manufacturer to see if it will work System software is 10X

98 out of 100% I would say . Probably because it has the same socket fs1r2 and I'm sure the bios supports it . If it supports the A8 4500 it usually does the A10 4600 . But there is always that 2% chance that it just won't . It happens , but 98 % sure it will .

yes, but it depends on the motherboard, the fabricants are making bios updates to support this new processors. here is a list of motherboards that support it at the moment. http://thepcenthusiast.com/list-of-8-series-motherboards-compatible-with-intel-devils-canyon/

It seems to be on the supported cpu list here - http://us.msi.com/support/mb/A88XME45.html#support-cpudo a find on 860k when your on that page. The correct bios file is listed at the far right

Yes, make sure to update to the newest bios before installing CPU and apply a very good quality of thermal compound to CPU. Thanks, Discount18

I know some of the old Asus boards can be upgraded in the bios to use this chip. I'm not sure if mine does, its the M3N78 Pro. On the Asus website it says the M3N78-VN does and I figure mine should be able to since it's a very simular model. I'll have to do more research.

It's on the supported CPU list: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=2842

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it. http://goo.gl/7108ON

I have the same board (g33m02 rev 01A) on one of my machines (a dell inspiron 530a). This cpu will not work on my board. Hope that helps.

I'm not entirely sure but I'm almost positive that this late in the game the board should come with a Bios that will recognize your AM3+ processor.You can also go to the Overclock.net forums, they have the " Gigabyte GA-990FXA-Series Owners Thread/Club " and post your concerns and in no time you should have a reliable answer.Good luck, I myself am thinking of buying this board also.

I bought it for my Y2P. It worked much better than the original card but I would still lose connection from time to time. Not sure about updated Bios but I had upgraded about a month ago before selling the PC.
