So I inherited a Core i5 3550p processor...cheap LGA 1155 mobo for it?

adagiogray · Dec 29, 2014

Looking to spend very, very little. I plan to let the kids use this one. Would like to be able to use it for some basic gaming. It has no onboard graphics from what I could find online, so I have an old Nvidia GTX275. Would that eliminate me from the less expensive micro ATX and ITX boards? I have a smaller ATX and a midtower gaming case.

(Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 40 amps)

Try an AsRock Z77 Extreme4 its a nice cheap motherboard for LGA-1150 sockets

I need an LGA 1155 board for the processor, not 1150. I didn't think 1150s were backwards compatible in that regard?
