You don't want a unlocked K processor in a Acer motherboard for one, and secondly it looks like its the last generation of Intel processors so the 4790K would not fit...you can confirm this by telling us the PC part number.

If wont work unless you get a new mobo. Your processor is LGA 1155 socket, and the i7-4790k is LGA 1150.
