Compatible CPU for model 07JNH0

Question

Hello,

I was wondering if I could upgrade my CPU with the following CPU:

i7-4930K Ivy Bridge

I'm having trouble finding a straighforward answer to this question..

My current specs:

CPU: i7-3820 Sandy Bridge

MB: Alienware 07JNH0 LGA2011

GPU: AMD Radeon 290x Tri-X Sapphire

PSU: Corsair 1000W

RAM: 32GB @1600Mhz Quad Channel (4x8GB)

Thanks

You may need a BIOS update so that the motherboard supports Ivy Bridge-E, but I think that would be it.

So a fully updated BIOS (A11) should support Ivy-bridge processors?

It should. The Aurora R4 has support for both Sandy Bridge-E and Ivy Bridge-E.
