[SOLVED] i5-4690k motherboard compatibility

[angelodybuco]

So, I have a Asus Prime B250M-A motherboard and I've already looked up on asus's website for compatibilities and I wasn't able to find the i5 4690k processor in there. Anyone here knows if the said cpu is compatible with the motherboard?

No, it’s a physically different socket.

Not compatible , board is an 1151 and CPU is an 1150.

For your board here are a couple of compatible CPU's:

Full compatible CPU list ^

For future reference even having the correct socket is not a guarantee of compatibility, always check the supported cpu list.
