I really don't mean to be rude, but the answer is in the text you just posted. Just take 30 seconds to look at it yourself and you will see.

No.
You want a socket 1155 motherboard. (P67 or Z68 chipset)
Otherwise, perfect.

The CPU/Motherboard won't work with each others.
You'll either want to change the CPU for a socket 1156 CPU, or change the motherboard for a socket 1155 one.

I thought 1155 and 1156 were interchangeable.

I would suggest not doing that, and changing the motherboard to 1155. The 1156 is not supported anymore, and the 2600k is top of the line CPU right now. Originally Posted by tommy12

Agreed. Keep the 2600k and switch the motherboard for a P67/Z68 board. I would suggest the ASUS P8Z68-V. Originally Posted by uggorthaholy

Every modern motherboard has ethernet built-in, so yes.
