Hi,
I have a P67 system but also a Z77 system.
I have a MSI GTX 680 (PCI Express 3) - do I need to use an Ivy Bridge CPU on my Z77 board for the graphics card to work?
I currently have an i5-3550 processor in my Z77 but I was planning to put my i7-2600K in instead, however I've heard that an Ivy Bridge CPU is required to take advantage of the Z77 chipset - is that true?
Also, the USB3 ports never worked properly on my P67, but USB3 works perfectly on the Z77. But would USB3 still work properly on the Z77 if I used the i7 2600k?
Thanks,
