    Intel - Core i7-9700K motherboard compatibility

    Hi all, looking to upgrade my build to an Intel - Core i7-9700K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor but basically every motherboard I plop into pcpartpicker seems to give me this error


    • Some Intel B360/H310/Z370 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Coffee Lake Refresh CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions.


    Not really sure what to do or what motherboard to choose. I don't really want to spend a lot of money or do anything fancy, just something that works with my CPU is all I need. Even when I pick motherboards that pcpartpicker says are compatible, I get this message. I'm scared of buying the wrong one and destroying my parts lol. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    2 cores

    Intel product page

    https://ark.intel.com/products/80817/Intel-Core-i5-4460-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_40-GHz

    states it is a 4 core cpu.

    Does win10 task manager or other software like cpuid's hardware monitor show 4 or 2 cores ?

    The cpu is not a hyper thread version, so do not think that is the issue.

    Win10 should see all physical cores. logical cores and threads if hyper threading is enabled.

    Amd fx and some of the apu versions can have this.
