Can I use an Intel Core i3-3240 Dual-Core Processor with this motherboard?

i believe so, the i3-3240 is socket type lga-1155, i think the motherboard is compatible with all lga-115X, check pcpartpicker for compatibility of components <3

As long as the socket is an LGA 1150 it should work might need a bios update

No, that processor requires an LGA 1155 socket. This motherboard has the newer LGA 1150.

It has an LGA 775 CPU slot and it is compatible with most Core 2 CPU's. I recommend you go on ASRock's website and look up the specific CPU's that this board is compatible with (I made the mistake of not looking first and had to return the first CPU I bought and get another).

I believe that you can only use Intel with this board. States in the specs - Chipset: Intel H61.

No, you will not, there are special motherboard for this processor, like GA-990FXA, due to the power consumption of this processor.

Hi.no,the board does not support that cpu.here's a list of supported processors:http://tinyurl.com/a9oxfwy

Yes, as long as the model ends in 5 or 6 (the CPU must have a built in GPU if you plan on using the onboard video ports). I'm using a Xeon E3-1226 with this board.

Yes, that's more than enough. What type of processor and motherboard do you have?
1900322
Yes you can! I use an AMD Athlon IIx4 640 3.00GHZ Quad. This board will take AM3 and AM3+ Processors.

Not off this board. That processor is an AM2 and this board is for an AM3+ designed processor. You would need to get an AM3+ processor. Plus with the AM3+ you can go 8 core

I'm not sure but I am just going to warn you that it is a integrated CPU so if u ever plan on upgrading CPU or something like that you will have to get a new motherboard.

Yes. This motherboard has a PCIe x16 slot, and can support that card just fine.

Yes sir, it is compatible with that CPU. I have the Intel Core i5-2500 in my current build and it works like a dream!

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it.http://goo.gl/7108ON

of course. This is a great motherboard and include support to latest AMD® Socket AM3. I buy another motherboard with this processor, but this one is much better.

There shouldn't be any reason why not...that's a pretty hefty PS, no matter what you're running...your motherboard and video card are going to have more impact on which PS you get than your processor though...

No. That processor is LGA 1366 socket type. That motherboard you are linking to is a socket LGA 775. It will not be compatible with that board.

No it is not. This one is though Intel Core i3-3240 Dual-Core Processor 3.4 Ghz 3 MB Cache LGA 1155 - BX80637i33240
