I have the 8437 1.3 system board which currently has the I7-8700k and I was wondering if the 9700K would drop in?

Hey @WeakWifi 

 

Currently, only the 8th gen cpus are listed as compatible. But I did some reading into the latest bios updates and looks like they have been upgraded to accept the 9th gen cpu's. You will need the board updated to the latest bios before you switch cpu's.
