Update IntelliJ (macOS) for Java SDK 9

I just downloaded Java SDK 9 for Mac and installed it: Console output:

felixbreuer$ java -version
java version "9"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9+181)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9+181, mixed mode)

But when I wanna do a new Project or change the Java SDK Version of my current Project in IntelliJ I can only choose the Module Java 1.8 ... Anybody knows how I can upgrade this ? I bet its easy but I can't find any solutions on the web... they only show the new features for java 9 in IntelliJ to its 100% supported.

You need to add the new JDK, in order to let IntelliJ make use of it.

Project Settings -> Project SDK -> New -> Add new JDK -> Select the path to JDK9's Content/Home
