Are there any restrictions which CPU i could use? Would a i7 4790 work?
Is this a good question?

Sorry there are limits on what will work. The best you can put in is a 3.4 GHz Core i7 (I7-2600)
The chips are very different TDP & needed socket

What's your end purpose? What CPU do you have now? Are you trying to speed it up? If so please tell us your RAM configuration and hard drive/s set up and we may be able to give you some suggestions that we've actually tried.
