Information about compatibility with "Haswell Refresh" processors
Processor manufacturer Intel has recently added further models to its successful Haswell processor family. This new enhanced line-up of processors goes by the name "Haswell Refresh". Shuttle products for socket LGA1150 are also compatible. We explain here which models with which BIOS version can be used.
