well u can,, but i dont think u have to consider that buying(if its available anywhere).. 3220 is the best u can have in i3 with 1155 socket..
update.. oops.. 550 is not compatible its got a 1156 socket which wont fit into 1155 socket ..

You will not be able to do it since the motherboard has a lga 1155 socket but the i3-550 uses the lga 1156 socket

No. The i3-550 CPU is not compatible with LGA1155. That CPU is supported only on LGA1156 socket. Spec sheet found here. http://ark.intel.com/products/48505/Intel-Core-i3-550-Processor-4M-Cache-3_20-GHz

The i3-3220 CPU is compatible with LGA1155. Spec sheet found here if interested. http://ark.intel.com/products/65693
