    A mate of mine has a processor thats acting up, its an i5-2500k 1155

    Hes looking to get a new one to replace it but is wondering will the i5-3570k 1155 be ok to use instead.

    Anything specifically he needs to check to make sure its compatible?

    Cheers

    How does he know it's the CPU which is the problem? He may need to update the BIOS to take ivy bridge cpus

    Fair enough if it is a problem repeating when used with a different motherboard/psu /ram etc.
