will My CPU fit this motherboard?

Precedentbug · Jan 3, 2018

I was thinking of buying the i7 2600k for my next upgrade so i'm able to play my favorite game "PUBG" And i was just curious..

Will the i7 2600k Fit in this?

Or can i get some other suggestions for different motherboards that will fit it? I'm not looking to spend any more than $60 because i'm broke.

Thanks!

Yes, it will physically fit. However, that is a lower end chipset and questionable quality product. I can't find CPU compatibility info for this mystery mobo. I suppose for the cost, it is worth the gamble.

Could you help me find a better one? or should i go for this.. i'm not quiet sure :/

i would think about the intel i5 8400 instead. it will be faster and way more future proof

This is a better (but more expensive) option:

rontonomo :

This is very true, if the OP has the budget for a new CPU, mobo, and memory.

The Motherboard you linked me before the https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-GA-H61M-DS2-DVI-Motherboard-PC-1333/dp/B00AWJC1M4/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1514993561&sr=1-4&keywords=socket+1155+motherboard

Does the i7 2600k fit in it still? And i noticed it uses DDR3 so i wouldn't have to buy DDR4 Ram, just to confirm .. here's my parts (can you please confirm for me that all my stuff will fit in that £95.92 Motherboard?

)

Mini Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 OC edition 2GB
Stock Intel cooler for the i7 2600k? (I have one laying around)
QUIET ARTIC BLUE 750W ATX PSU 8 PIN -MOLEX - PCI-E & 120mm BLUE FAN POWER SUPPLY

That's pretty much it, i would just need to order that Motherboard you linked me (If it fits of course)
and the i7 2600k.. i will later upgrade to i7 8400 once i have the money, for now i just wanna enjoy myself some PUBG

Yes, the Gigabyte mother is socket 1155, like your i7-2600. They are compatible.

Yes, that motherboard uses DDR3 memory, NOT DDR4.

Yes, your GPU and power supply (not a very one, but sufficient) will work as well.

Now i just need to find a way to get 200 pounds lol, By any chance do you know how i could possibly find a job? I'm 17 and i wish i had a job to gain money, i'm not a lazy person.. i work very hard.

I'm from the UK Btw.. and thanks for confirming the motherboard

Check with local businesses for part-time help they may require (I assume you are still in school).

Check Craigslist (for your area, of course). For example: https://london.craigslist.co.uk/d/jobs/search/jjj

Look at the "extras" for film. You get paid and get to be on screen (my wife and daughter are film makers).

https://london.craigslist.co.uk/tfr/d/short-movie-roles-available/6446364898.html

However, be careful and cautious with all of these. If it doesn't feel right, walk away. Some of these listings are truly deplorable and laughable.

Thank you so much for the help COLGeek, i really do appreciate it.. hope you have a great rest of the year!
