Can I put a i5 3570 on a Lenovo Mahobay Motherboard which has a H61 Chipset? I can't find any BIOS details which I know are important, so if anyone could help out, that would be greatly appreciated.
Specs:
Lenovo H430 PC
Lenovo Mahobay Motherboard
Intel H61 Chipset
8gb Ram
Gefore GT 620 GPU

Thanks,
Michael

On the "Compatibility" tab it lists 3570 as a compatible CPU with the H61. HOWEVER: Lots of people on the internet are saying that it is based on the motherboards bios; new ones can do Ivy Bridge on the H61, old ones cant. Just wondering if anyone could give me info on that.

Hi mf Red, how would I know which Bios is right for me to update to?
Sorry, I'm new with this kind of stuff.
