My ODE level 4 is currently sitting in stage 5.   But I just realized Intel came out with 4th generation chips.  I went with Asus rampage IV extreme motherboard.  Will this motherboard support these new 4th generation Intel Cpus?  If not, should I go and go with the new motherboard that supports these chipsets?  I really don't know what to do now?  Is it even possible to reconfigure your system when it is already in stage 5?  thanks

The new Haswell 4th Gen chips won't fit in the x79 mobo.   The pin count dorsn't match.

Don't worry about it.      Your 3930k 6 core chip is more powerful for alot of applications.    The new chip is a 4 core chip that is only 5-15% better than the 4 core older 3770k chip.    

Keep what you have and Enjoy.
