Can anyone compare the motherboard h110m-k and B365M-HDV, LGA115, micro ATX since i want to change from h110 to b365 but i dont know if all the adapters will be good compatible. I usually dont so this but i really need help so if you can please help me.

^ that one also has a 2x4 pin at the CPU.

If you look at the connector on your PSU you will see if you have just one 4 pin, or a 2x4 connector there.

I am not fully aware of how this works, but it is at least a partial understanding that some motherboards only utilize the second connector (of the 2x4) for OC or high power situations. I am not read up on that aspect enough to know if it would apply in this situation, or not.

If you are looking to purchase this mobo from a nearby shop, perhaps you can discuss with them what you are doing, specific models the swap is being done within, and possible roadblocks?

What adapters? Are you meaning the motherboard plugs for power and such?

The B365 is going to require another 4 pin CPU connector as comparted to the H110. Aside from that you do realize this is a whole other generation for the CPU support?

Yes i do i just bought i5 9400f and now i was looking up some motherboards since the one i have isnt conpativle with gen 9. So im asking if the adapters on the b365 match most of the ones on h110 so that i dont have to buy everything new. I just wanted to switch out the motherboard and if i have to change everything because of the wrong adapters it will be cheaper for me to find a gen 6 processor.

And if it doesent meet the requirements cam you link any motherboards that support i5 9400f and do meet them.

I will try to buy the mobo tomorow since i would have done it anyways and i will send a message if something pops up that i cant get throug myself if that is ok with you. There is a return policy and if it doesent fit my needs i can bring it back.
