I live in Canada do anyone know a site or a store where I can buy one. the cheapest it is the better it is it's just to replace an old board and having the value out of this old i3 processor

sadly 1556, 1555 would've been easy to find 

There's no such thing as an lga 15xx motherboard. There's 1150, 1155 (dead), 1156 (dead), 1366 (dead), or 2011.

 

EDIT: Not sure if this needs to be said, but when I say "dead", I mean that there are no more motherboards made with that socket, and no CPUs made any more that are compatible with those sockets.

Yeah, thought of that after I edited.

 

Whoops, sorry for being a dick OP.

I saw your first message I was like: ''take me for a full retard ignorant''. but yeah np it's not a usual request it's just that I have a super hard time finding one that I can buy from canada. In the worst case I will have a useless old i3 in stock.

People still use LGA775 and PGA478.

 

They're both dead.
