Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) I want to upgrade my processor.. max price is around 230$. I'm using h110m motherboard, lga 1151 socket.. currently using pentium g4560. I want to upgrade to a quad core processor. Preferably below 230$ Edited August 14, 2017 by GratoNite Wrong motherboard type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 14, 2017 Ummm, H81 is a chipset on the LGA 1150 socket, which is not compatible with LGA 1151 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 14, 2017 I assume you have an H110 board, since a G4560 is not LGA 1150, and you say 1151 socket. if you have an H110 board, or any with a 1151 socket, the 7700 (K) is the best CPU you can get right now. 8th gen CPUs probably won't be compatible, but it might be worth it to wait until aug 21st until there's official news.

Posted August 14, 2017 If it's h81 then it's LGA 1150, Haswell (4th gen) compatible. Since you got an G4560 going it's LGA 1151 and it should be h110. h170. h270. Affordable brand new quad cores should be 6400, 6500, 7400 and 7500. For used then you might be able to get a 6600, 6700.
