    Yes, just make sure your bios is up to date. The board was out for a while before the cpu, so you have to update to make it compatible.

    If you haven't already, yes, put in one of your 4770's, update the BIOS, then try out the 4690.

    I am a dummy. Right after sending this, I realized you meant the cpu, lol, not the whole setup.
