Yeah, you can upgrade to an LGA1155 CPU. I recommend a Sandy Bridge i5/i7.

  • Core i5 2nd Gen.
  • Core i5 3rd Gen.
  • Core i5 4th Gen.
  • Core i7 3rd Gen.
  • Core i7 4th Gen.

.i saw this motherboard ram and cpu combo in my area in a local site and for me its a great deal because in my country is not that good in terms of tech. it cost Php1500 which is roughly USD30. i have a GTX 750 ti laying around i want to use it in this build. i ask the person who was selling it to inform me about the  MOBO but according to him he doesnt know the motherboard"s name > the mobo has Intel G620 2.6 ghz  and 2gb of ddr3 ram 
can the motherboard support a better CPU like a core i3 or core i5? 

 

thanks in advance for the answers.

thanks for the fast reply. 
another question is what is the motherboard's name. because the person who was selling it doesnt know it

because i need to know what the specs of the mobo to know about  maximum size and speed of the ram. 

does anyone have idea on MOBO's name?
