Hello guys,i have a gigabyte h81-d2v (rev.2.0)and i want to put on an i5 4690k but i dont know if fits with each other.Can you help me wth that?
 
It will fit and will run if it is a modern version of the board (made recently) and has the correct BIOS. If you have the board already in a working system, update the BIOS before you remove the old CPU.

HOWEVER, I would not do it. Why pay extra money for an unlocked, overclockable chip and put it on such a cheap motherboard where it cannot be overclocked.

So my big question is WHY?
