Is it compatible with i7 4790k out of the box?

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

It is compatible with the I7. I have just installed an I-7 with 8GB of ram into the GA-Z97X-UD3H motherboard. After installing Microsoft 7 32Bit Ultimate OS, it worked the first time that the system was booted without any problems. When i received my first GA-Z97X-UD3H, I found the CPU socket has several bent pins. Amazon had me another motherboard on the following day, which was Saturday, at no cost to me. They sent me a return shipping label and a RMA form to include in the return carton. Th second motherboard worked beautifully and my son, who will be using the system was extremely happy with system as well as I It is compatible with the I7.

Yes.... compatible CPU list is here : http://processormatch.intel.com/Processors/CompatibleProcessors?componentName=dz77ga70k

Yes, two of my friends have the i7 4790k and this RAM with zero problems. I also use this RAM, but with the i5 4670K overclocked. Again, no issues. My friends have had their current set up for two weeks with great results. I know this isn't a very solid confirmation, but I thought I'd at least let you know that I've personally seen it running great with that processor :-)

The h81m chipset supports this processor. Both are LGA 1150 so should work fine.

Yes, it is absolutely compatible, make sure to use the top PCI-E 3.0 slot for the best performance

Assuming you are trying to ask if the i7-4790K is compatible with this board, then yes, as the 4790K is a S1150 chip. http://ark.intel.com/m/products/80807/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-4_40-GHz#@product/specifications

Yes, it's compatible with any Core i3/5/7 LGA 1155 processor. The graphics are not on the mobo, they are on the chip, so performance depends on which processor you get (Core i3 has the HD2000 integrated GPU, while the i5/7 have HD3000).

Yes it is. I have virtually the same motherboard, but either way as long as it has the appropriate pci slot (which your motherboard does) then it will work.

Yes ,It will and you can easily overclock this processor with this board. This is my computer board on one of my computers which I have the i7 4770k running at 4.5 ghz. I bought the 4790k to build a new system but decided to purchase the Z97 to build on. So now I have both. I prefer the Z97 because it is easier to work with but both boards work well for me. BIOS updates are easy to do on both. Z97 has more updated features. If you buy either board you must update the bios before you start tinkering.

Yes... more importantly check to see if it is compatible with your motherboard!

Yes, it will work out of the box. The software in it is upgradable by ordering the latest chip.

No it is not compatible, I´m refering to use your LGA 155 i7-3770 with the new mobo you´re going to buy.
1654763
of course NOT. i7-4770k is LGA-1150 socket, this is LGA-1155. get the Z87 Mobo

No it is not compatible. The 4790K is compatible with Z97 boards and is a socket 1150. Your board has a socket 1155. The socket on the Motherboard has to match the socket of the CPU. This particular CPU is only compatible with a Z97 chipset. Sorry to disappoint you, but that's the way it works.

Yes it should be but make sure you check the CPU chip set because it may require a different processor and heat sink fan

I have no idea what the FC relates to but it should work no problem. I would check the motherboard specs to see if the 4790 is good for it.
