Can it support an i7-4820k?

I believe so IF you have the proper BIOS version. According to the Gigabyte website the cpu is only supported with Bios Version "F4" or later. The cpu must also be revision S1 or later (some may call this the stepping code). It is not clear to me how you might upgrade if the I7-4820 is the only CPU you have. Please note: I have had very limited success with Engineering Samples (ES) CPUs with my Gigabyte motherboards (GA-X79-UP4, GA-X79S-UP5). My advice is stay with the retail releases.

Yes, it is supported. For a complete list of supported CPUs, please see: http://www.gigabyte.us/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4288. Hope this helps. Thanks.

it will support all of the processors located on this list. http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS_VI_GENE/#support

Yes that's compatible. For future reference, when you buy a CPU, check the socket type. Your CPU is an LGA 1150. So you have to buy LGA 1150 board. This is one of them

No it wont, different slots, that motherboard only supports AM3, this processor requires AM3+

It should, depends on if your motherboard and powersupply can handle it, the only thing is that being a intel processor and a amd graphics card, you will not be able to share cores

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.

Yes, but I doubt very much the case it is in will support it as this is a microatx motherboard. Check the size and see also you'll need a pretty good power supply with at least 600watts.

Probably. The spec sheet says it supports LGA2011. Only one way to find out for sure though! I use the corsair H100i for mine and it is way sufficient.

I checked the Intel site and it that board does not appear to support that processor check http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/cs-012668.htm

It will, no problem, I had a similar setup with a i7-4790k, no issues whatsoever.

Indeed it can. I have almost that exact setup except that I have the 4670k, but it's pretty much the same processor (just clocked a bit higher and unlocked for overclocking, but exact same socket).

Hi.no,the board does not support that cpu.here's a list of supported processors: http://tinyurl.com/a9oxfwy

I do not think so but you can go to Intel.com/support for help getting the right motherboard.

Yes - I have it in an AM3+ motherboard right now. I even unlocked the 2nd core (although this is not a guarantee). Of course, go to your motherboard manufacturer's website. You'll find the list of CPUs supported. I would check there before I clicked the 'buy' button.

According to the MSI website (http://us.msi.com/support/mb/A88XME45.html#support-cpu), it is supported.

Yes your motherboard should support it. But for overclocking make sure you have a 550 to 600 watt power supply.

You could, It would be bottle necked by your CPU. I'd look at getting a new mobo setup if possible
