Will an Intel® Core™ i7-6820HQ Processor fit on my Intel® HM87 Chipset Mainboard?

Just as the title asks. If anyone needs more info I'd be happy to provide it. I am not very good with hardware and I want to make sure everything will work properly before I buy anything.

The processor does not physically fit on the socket, See pictures below for socket sizes:

Sorry to be such a pain but going off that list would the Intel® Core™ i7-4800MQ Processor fit? You said might so I want to be sure,

It might because the list I gave you is not final, processor compatibility depends on the board maker or computer manufacturer. In this case, you need to contact your computer manufacturer to get more information about supported processor for your computer model.
