Intel Core i3-530 Processor 2.93GHz, 4M Cache, SLBLR, is compatible?? and i take it u need a 8 pin conector for the PSU? is there an adapter for the 4

no this is 1155 that cpu is 1156, and the power connector is 24 pin not 8 or 4

yes its compatible with 2nd and 3rd intel core /pentium/ celeron processors with cpu socket LGA1155. You have the second gerneration so your all good

Hi there!, Well you need to check if the processor supports DDR3 memory beucase it seems that the socket is AMD 880G Chipset. It does, yes it will be compatible.

No. Your processor LGA 1050 and the board is LGA 1055; these are not cross-compatible. sorry.

Just got mine in to day. It is in fact the i9000T thats supports 850/1900/2100

Wish I knew for sure ! Email Corsair, I'm sure they will respond ! I really don't see why it wouldn't be compatible ! But then again next gen tech could pose a problem that may not be obvious on the surface ! Maybe Intel could answer as well,in fact probably a question better fielded by them ? Good luck

yes indeed. I am not sure that at the time I got my Celeron unit, the Core i3 version existed yet.Good luck!

It should be compatible. Both the board and the CPU use AM3+ socket. For the incompatibility alert, did you check that you have enough power from the PSU?

I bought the 3.4 ghz chip. Installed and when system boots I get an error that the current chip isn't compatible. If I continue the PC runs and faster. Think the problem is that the chip 3.4 ghz is dual CPU. E520 bios doesn't support a dual CPU chip. Just my thoughts.

Just keep in mind that not all I7 CPU's are LGA 1155 sockets....the new I7s ...4th generation I7s are LGA 1150 and we not work with this board...

It needs an amd processor that is am3 or am3+. On the processor you are considering purchasing, check out the socket type... if it says am3 or am3+ you are good.

I would suggest checking the product website, they have listed the compatible chipsets and processors

I am using an Asus Sabertooth board along with an AMD 8core Processor. The PSU should work right from what I am understanding from you guys.

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!

I'm sorry, I thought this referred toa processor I just bought. To answer your question, you need to buy a socket LGA1155.

What kind of connectors are you using? If it requires 6 cores you will be out of luck.
