Question about Intel Chipsets

[diluzio91]

So if I have an i5 2500K can it be paired with a newer 1155 (ivy bridge compatable) motherboard?

I want to sell my gigabyte UD4 and my Corsair 600T to get a much smaller MATX board and case.

No issues using sandy bridge cpus on ivy bridge mobos.

Yep, any Ivy bridge board will work, Z77 or otherwise. You may have to flash BIOS when running a new Ivy in an older P67, H67, or H61 Sandy board, but this doesn't apply to you
