Need help in picking my new processor

Hello guys,

I come with a request from you to tell me if my motherboard ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING can be compatible with an Intel® Core™ i9-9900K Processor.

I was reading more sites regarding the compatibility between these two and I don't want to waste time in sending back the merchandise because it's not compatible.

I was also paying a bit of attention on the Amazon site tot his little info:
[Spoiler]

I am also seeing this site give additional info regarding compatibility but because there is a lot of information on the internet you don't know what source to trust.

Some sites explain that it's compatible, others say that you need something to make your BIOS work with that processor. Is there someone here that can give me simple advice :)? Will I get a bottleneck if I take the I9 in combination with my motherboard?

Thank you Vermind, I highly appreciate it!

If you put i9 into the search here, you get a list of Asus ones that support it: https://www.asus.com/support/cpu_support
You can check the online / store where you are at which is cheapest... I usually just look at cpu support, memory clock speeds, and what WiFi chip it has, since wrong WiFi used to cause issues on Linux.

We're no longer going to have sister PCs :( i6600K+RX480

have fun!

If you're considering picking up both a new motherboard and a new processor, you might as well take a look at https://www.logicalincrements.com/ to see the state of PC building and breakdowns of similar components.
