Hello, AMD processors are not compatible with intel motherboards and cpus are usually not compatible over different generations either.

7010 has Intel Q77 chipset, ivy bridge, 3rd gen core i7/5/3 cpu (+ pentium or celeton) top cpu upgrade is i7-3770. both i7 and i5 in this gen are 4 core.
socket is lga1155. incompatible with 4+ gen Intel cpu.
