Title: Is there any good CPU with 1155 socket ?
Post by: Rokas on January 13, 2016, 07:54:38 pm

Hi, I have GA-H61M-D2H Motherboard and I was looking here for a CPU but I have 1155 socket, and I don't see good CPU for my PC, so is it better to change My mother board and then buy a good CPU like i5-6600 ?

If you want to run that CPU i5-6600 you will have to get a Z170 board. These are good 1155 CPU's i7-3770K or i5-3570K

Thanks for the answer, but what about a cooler? I don't have very good cooler so would it over heat on i7-3770, if I would play a game(Example 7 Days to Die) ?
