How does this new rig look upgraded to the 4690 but it says some z87 chipsets may need an update prior to using has well refresh CPUs. What doe this mean and how do I so this?
The Intel Core i5 4690 is part the new Haswell Refresh that came out not to long ago. It's designed to go with a Z97 motherboard, however some Z87 motherboards will get their bios updated to support the new Haswell Refresh, however not all of them will.
I would just do the safe thing and go with a Z97 motherboard. Let me link some good ones.
I have found a crucial ram 8gb with 2400 MHz that costs a bit more. It has a higher CAS should I go for it. As I've said before I plan to play ETS2, Spintires, Scania Truck Driving Sim, and you tubing.
Thanks
