And

If any one is interested shoot me a PM

[It has still ~2.3 years Warranty Left]
[Bought it for ~24,500]

The i7 4790K is a Devil's Canyon processor (Haswell Refresh) which is a Z97/H97 processor.

Haswell Refresh CPUs are not backwards compatible with Z87/H87 chipset boards.

I think they could work with a BIOS update but I am not sure.

Yes they work with BIOS Update , just checked

Answer the other questions though

No benefit from that upgrade really. Just a waste of money.
