Will my i7 4790k fit into a motherboard with the chipset: Z87?

Yes

Yes, But you might need a bios update, For this go to your motherboard manufacturers website and find your motherboard and download the latest update.

Most but not all Z87 boards , have updated the BIOS , WHAT BOARD WERE YOU LOOKING AT? 😀

All Devil's Canyon processors work on Z87 but they require a bios update.

(I remember when Asus said that one of his motherboard would support DC lol)

If the BIOS is updated.

What board do you recommend getting for Z87? Around £100 limit. SLI ready preferably, but that doesn't really matter. Thanks!
