I have to replace my motherboard. I want to keep my i7-3770 CPU and all the other components. I just want to change my MB and memory if needed.
My setup is:
i7-3770 CPU
LGA1155 socket
B75 chipset
Intel's list of compatible chipsets are Z77,Z75, Z68, Q77, Q75, P67, H77, H67, H61 & B75.
can I use a motherboard that supports any of these chipsets or do I need to get one with the B75 chipset for my stuff to work?

stick to Z77 or H77 boards for that chip, no need for the low end b75 when prices are about the same. What is the reason you need to replace just the motherboard?

Read carefully the question before you asnwer op is just asking what motherboard should buy.

How it was suggested earlier a z77 chipset motherboard would be great for you.

Retailers still sell H61 chipset models. You make no mention of the size (form factor) that you want.

Basroil,
The DVI port on the internal graphics stopped working a while back. Now my screen has a whit haze over it. You can slightly see the picture on the wallpaper but you can't see the mouse or icons. I bought a new GPU and PSU. After installing them the PC would not boot up. If you pull the GPU out it will boot up but you cant see the screen. I took it to a shop in town, they tested the GPU and it worked fine but the PCIe slot didn't recognize the new GPU.

I took your advise about the Z77. I bought an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4. What are your thoughts of this MB? I just got it this morning and I'm waiting on FedEx for the new case. Then I will attempt to put it all together.

Thank you for your help.

Cheap, but should work.... Except what you described is a CPU failure (graphics is built into CPU in sandy bridge and newer), so you're just prolonging the inevitable

Hi
. Some diligent searching of the Intel Support pages will lead you to a listing of chipsets, where you can find a listing of motherboards that are suitable for your CPU.
I can't give the page, 'cos I only use it once or twice a decade, and it IS buried, and I kinda get frustrated by the time I reach the page that I'm relieved just to get the info, and forget to bookmark the page.
However, when I link that to a search of which processors will suit which motherboards, and both results match, I am 100% confident that if I buy the exact models listed, they will work.
