The latest 10th generation Intel CPU supports LGA1151 sockets. For future upgrades, a new motherboard is typically required.

Yes, you'll need a different motherboard, though it's not about Intel being greedy. Each series has supported two CPU generations over the last decade, so it makes sense for them to update boards or sockets. You can point out the missing PCIE4.0 if you wish, but that's another matter. If you bought a solid 8th or 9th generation CPU/motherboard, the upgrade isn't really worth it. If you got a lower-end Intel product hoping to upgrade later, considering the decade-long track record, that's your responsibility. I'm not trying to be defensive, but these debates about Intel changing boards and sockets lose their edge quickly.

I’ll go with the 10900k and need an LGA1200 board. Probably the Z490 Aorus Master.
