I see that my motherboard is a LGA 1155 but is this chip compatible with a Intel Motherboard like the Intel BOXDP67BGB3? I'm asking because I was going to buy the Intel Core i7-4790K since its LGA 155 but then I realized that it clearly states that...

No it is not compatible. The 4790K is compatible with Z97 boards and is a socket 1150. Your board has a socket 1155. The socket on the Motherboard has to match the socket of the CPU. This particular CPU is only compatible with a Z97 chipset. Sorry to disappoint you, but that's the way it works.

Yes it is. It is compatible with all Intel LGA1155/LGA1156 and AMD AM3/Llano/AM3+ platforms. I would suggest also getting answers from several sources. /r/buildapc on reddit will be a great help to you.

1150 only. That generally means Haswell. I purchased an i5-4670K. It's easy to find out what the chipset is by searching for LGA 1150 or filtering only by LGA 1150 compatible processors.

Yes, as well as any other LGA 1155 based board. All you have to do is match the LGA socket requirements (1155 in this case) between any CPU and motherboard then you're good to go.

Hi Jennifer. Best way to answer this is to just go to Intel site: http://processormatch.intel.com/MotherBoards/CompatibleBoards?componentName=i5-3350P , Here you can find out all the specs and MB that the processor is compatible with.

LGA 1150 is the newer "haswell" chip set made by Intel and the 1155 is the previous generation of ivy bridge CPU chips. There is no better one. I got the 1150 4770k mobo and chipset because it is newer but I have found that the temperatures are a lot more fickle than the 1155. Since I am using a dedicated graphics card, the extra oomph you get from the 1150 is moot. If I were in your shoes, depending on budget, go for the cheaper of the two options and then spend that extra money where you can actually see a difference. For example, if you save $100 from CPU/mobo, use that to buy a higher tiered graphics card. Just my 2 cents. Edit Vlasta* is right. The newer one is the LGA 1150 and the sandy/ivy are the LGA 1155.

No, that processor requires an LGA 1155 socket. This motherboard has the newer LGA 1150.

It has an LGA 775 CPU slot and it is compatible with most Core 2 CPU's. I recommend you go on ASRock's website and look up the specific CPU's that this board is compatible with (I made the mistake of not looking first and had to return the first CPU I bought and get another).

Yes, it will work because the motherboard supports Intel's LGA 1150 wich i7 4790k is designed for.

Hello: Most i3 processors would work. The socket on the motherboard however is a 1155.Check out the Gigabyte website for supported processor list. Frankly I would not use a i3 on this mother board.Some i3 cache is not supported. Best bet is to use a i5 or i7. Its a pretty good motherboard.

I put an I5 processor on the board I bought because it is LGA 1155. I7 processors are LGA 1366, 1156, 1155 and 2011. The Core I7-2600 is shown on Wikipedia to be LGA 1155 so it might work. My I5 processor also operates at 3.4GHz.

This processor should work fine with this motherboard. My boy put one of these processors in his computer and it has worked great! This processor is low power 95w if I remember right. No guarantees my friend. If you are buying the chip for under $100 and please remember to replace your mother board battery. Those were my last 3 failures. If you fail buy another motherboard.

From what I could find on it, its model number is MSI H61M-P31 which is an intel board and will not work. All manufacturers release a list of CPU's that are compatible with the motherboard on their website, with this processor especially it is important to find a motherboard that supports it.

You probably mean LGA 1150 vs LGA 1155, the first one is for newer generation of Intel processor (Haswell). They are ~10% faster that the previous generations that run on LGA 1155 (Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge).

I used the Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor G860 LGA 1155-BX806236860 with no problems...Thank that board will work with i7,i5, or i3 intel LGA 1155 socket.

if the i7 uses the lga 1150 platform then yes it will work just fine. how ever if it uses any other platform such as lga 1155 or lga 2011 or so on then no you will need to go look for another motherboard. if you don't know what platform it runs on check the model of your cpu. if it starts with a 4 (example 4770k) then it is a haswell cpu that runs on the lga 1150 platform and it will work. if it does not start with a 4 it is likely from another generation of cpu and will instantly damage your pc if you try to use it. you can also check the gigabyte website to see what CPUs' work on this motherboard. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4491# if the i7 uses the lga 1150 platform then yes it will work just fine. how ever if it uses any other platform such as lga 1155 or lga 2011 or so on then no you will need to go look for another motherboard. if you don't know what platform it runs on check the model of your cpu. if it starts with a 4 (example 4770k) then it is a haswell cpu that runs on the lga 1150 platform and it will work. if it does not start with a 4 it is likely from another generation of cpu and will instantly damage your pc if you try to use it. you can also check the gigabyte website to see what CPUs' work on this... » Read More if the i7 uses the lga 1150 platform then yes it will work just fine. how ever if it uses any other platform such as lga 1155 or lga 2011 or so on then no you will need to go look for another motherboard. if you don't know what platform it runs on check the model of your cpu. if it starts with a 4 (example 4770k) then it is a haswell cpu that runs on the lga 1150 platform and it will work. if it does not start with a 4 it is likely from another generation of cpu and will instantly damage your pc if you try to use it. you can also check the gigabyte website to see what CPUs' work on this motherboard. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4491# « Show Less

Not all CPU's work on all motherboards. Check your motherboard documentation and make sure it supports this CPU. You need the board to support an LGA 1155. If it does then check to make sure you have it oriented properly. I can't remember if this CPU has pins or not on the bottom but if so, make sure none of them are bent. If everything checks out then I would contact Amazon about a replacement.
