Can an i5 3450 run on a DH61HO motherboard?

Hello,

As the title says, I'm wondering if I can run an i5 on the DH61HO motherboard for a budget build. I do not plan on any overclocking.

Thanks. Can you tell me what's the difference between 3450 and 3450S?

3450s have a lower TDP and slower standard GHz.

One last question. Should I get the i3 3220 or the the i5 3450S?

Unless you are running old single threaded app. I would go for the 4 core i5 3450S.

Okay. Thank you so much.
