Will a socket 1155 processor "fit" on a 1150 socket motherboard ?

[gtx970help]

Well, title says it all. I have a i5 3570 and I'm looking to buy a new motherboard with a 1150 socket so i can use it when i7 4790k in future. So my question is if my socket 1155 processor will be able to fit in to this new socket?

No. You need an LGA1150 CPU for an LGA1150 board.

Also, Skylake comes out shortly with a new LGA1151 socket. I suggest you wait for that.

No, and I leant it myself- in which could be a very expensive mistake xD
I got an 1150 MoBo and accidentally ordered a wrong socket CPU (was meant to get Intel Core i7 4770K- got something else on 1155 by a mistake).
So when I was building the PC, I popped the 1155 on to the socket, thought it was aligned, pushed down the lever, and if I had pushed harder I would have smashed it xD
Carefully took it out and replaced for what I intended to buy xD If I remember correctly the 1155 is actually physically bigger.

Pretty sure they're exactly the same size, but have notches cut out in different places.

Maybe that was it, it was nearly two years ago, so I could have forgotten the details. I remember that it was a near fit, and yeah the notch wasn't where it was supposed to be... I put it in, tried to lock and thought to myself WTF, am I doing something wrong? Then I looked at the CPU box and realized it wasn't the model I wanted to buy... haha...
