Can I fit a FCLGA1151-compatible CPU in a LGA775 Socket?

dosgamer12 · Jun 28, 2017

I've been looking for a new CPU to upgrade to (I currently have the intel core 2 duo e8400).
Eventually, I had found an Intel Core i3-6300.
Unfortunately, my motherboard has a LGA775 socket, and the i3 uses the FCLGA1151 socket.
Would it still work if I tried to put it in anyway?

If You press it really Hard it might get in, now seriosly dont even try it, it wont fit and if You try it you would damage both things.

no, it will not fit and even if you make it fit, it will not work

you need a lga1151 socket for a lga 1151 cpu, the lga 775 is ancient and abandoned now, more than 10 years old socket, time to get new parts

Can you fit a square peg into a round hole?

a square into a cricle, the right shape with the right tool makes any job possible

the problem here is not shape or size, lga 775 has 775 pins, lga 1151 has 1151 pins, no pin will fit in the right place, also the bios will not see the new cpu even if for a miracle a pin works and feeds the cpu properly

is as viable as fit a fm2 amd cpu into a p4 mainboard, same logic

Why not put a xeon on it?

You may have to look around to see if your motherboard supports it (Most AFAIK do). It's only $11 so give it a try (with the e5450 being $10 more).
