Is LGA 1150 CPU compatible with my mobo (currently have LGA 775 CPU))

Derek Kaos · Feb 20, 2015

I'm planning to upgrade my cpu, I currently have the old Intel Celeron which has LGA 775. I want to buy just the cheap INTEL PENTIUM G3220 which has LGA 1150. I don't know what my mobo model is.

Is it compatible with my motherboard right now if I have a current LGA 775 cpu ?

No, you need new motherboard, which means new memory, cpu....basically new computer.

Not at all dude.. because mobo has 775 socket processor has 1150 socket.. it is different - differnet sockets. It is not fit on your mobo.. if you a buy a 1150 processor than you a buy a 1150 socket motherboard...

So any Intel Processor which have LGA 775 socket is compatible with my motherboard ? I think I will just buy an LGA775 cpu.

Yes dude.

you can get a refurbished core 2 quad. anything over 3.0ghz will do. just dont try to pair it with a gtx 980... (750ti/HD7770 max)
