Question Will a i5 6600 1151 chipset work on a MSI Z370 or Z390 1151 socket motherboard.

[Maj-Pain]

Was thinking if both had 1151 chip and socket, then yes but not 100% sure.

100% NOT compatible.

No, the Z370/Z390 boards only support the 8/9th Gen CPU's.

For the 6600 you'd want a Z270/H270/B250/Z170/H170/B150 board.

No, they are not compatible. 300 series motherboards only support 8th & 9th generation cpu’s. The 6600k is 6th generation.

That processor is not on those board's CPU support list. 8th and 9th gen only.

I have a samsung 970 pro NVMe m.2 I want to use, will the MSI Z270 motherboard support NVMe, I see that the Z270 has two m.2 slots just dont know if both are SATA

Most of the MSI Z270 Gaming boards can use a 970 Pro NVMe M.2 without issue and should give you full speeds.
