    Which processor do you have right now? The issue I see with the i7-4790K is it's power draw, it likely pulls a fair amount more than your stock processor, which means you'll want to be updating the cooling to handle the extra heat. Other than that it will work, though I don't think the BIOS supports over clocking so there won't be much improvement over an i7-4790.

    The stock processor is a 4440 it uses a slight difference however will not require a cooling upgrade but if the ram was capable of 4000 MHz it would heat it up quite a bit. Not the processor isn’t capable of heating itself up under normal 1600 MHz but the computer is not capable of supporting 4000 MHz ram so it will not heat up the most it will do is cool itself off more because it’s all in the same socket family the i7-4790k is just the most recent processor in that particular socket family so it’s completely compatible computer upgrade along with the new 1600 MHz non ecm memory and the i7-4790 isn’t even the same socket I’d have to research it tho

    The i5-4440 is an 85W processor, the i7-4790K is 88W so I don't see an issue there. If the stock were a i5-4440S it would have only been a 65W and the new one would be a 35% increase in cooling needs, which would easily translate into higher CPU temperatures. Memory size and speed doesn't affect the CPU cooling, but does affect the overall power budget. Memory speed is determined by the chip set, not by the installed memory type, so you're maxed at 1600MHz there. i7-4790, 4790K, 4790S and 4790T are all LGA 1150 sockets, so all fit.

    no again the proccesor may come new in a in intel box with a new heat sinc on a  h81h3-am v:1.0 motherboard its not going to affect a proccesors heating by 35% no way at all there is no chance that a proccesor is going to heat up on a spec motherboard on spec ram. and a spec proccesor upgrade there is nothing else i have to do but spec the ram spec the motherboard and proccesor and put heat sinc compound and hook up the fan and heatsinc back up to it its a generation 4 proccesor upgrade did you by any chance forget to lubricate your proccesor with heat sinc compund the last time you upgraded your proccesor im not changing any power modules why do you think the proccesor would heat up? the most it would do is cool off because the load is less because the proccesor is faster?

    its not a 4440 s is a  veriton m2631 with a gen 4 i5-4440 why would it have a 4440s?
    its like a devils lake i7-4790k vs. an i7-4790 wich is somthing completly different the proccesors watts has nothing to do with it at all.
