You will need a new motherboard for 4th gen CPUs as they use a different socket. Sorry, I know that's not what you want to hear

You can use any Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, and their Xeon counterpart processors on your socket 1155 board. But 4th generation Haswell processors use a different socket (1150), and have a very different way they receive power from the mother board. Even if one could fit in your board (it won't fit), the way voltage is supplied to a Haswell processor is so different your board would not be able to make it work. |
