Can Intel CPU fit asus motherboard

[jony1200010]

I've got an Asus f2a55-m le motherboard with a really old CPU. And i want to get a new cpu.
So can Intel core i5 8400 6 cores fit in?
Buy the way my current CPU is amd 6600k
So eny help guys would be appreciated thanks!.

Nope. Intel and AMD components are not compatible with each other. For the 8400 you will need a b360/h310/h370/z370 chipset motherboard.

You Need An Intel Motherboard for the cpu to work and thats an 8th gen motherboard and if you have DDR3 Ram Sticks Then you need to upgrade them as well if you want an 8th gen motherboard because most off them i seen supports ddr4. If you have the money then you can upgrade but if you got an budget I would suggest trying to find more better amd cpu!

Dang I'm on a really bad budget.
Do you guys recommend me getting a new motherboard and a Intel i5 8400 or getting ryzen 5 2400G. I also got a new gtx1060 6gb and my whole budget is prratty much the GPU..
Thx for replying!

You also need new ram sticks if you wanna upgrade to 8th gen cpu because your motherboard now is ddr3 so that means you have ddr3 ram sticks!

If you have the 1060, then go for the 8400 for best gaming performance.
All 8th gen. Intel and AMD Ryzen support DDR4 and DDR4 only. So you will need cpu+ram+mobo.

I got 8gb ram do I still need to change?

Only if you want the 8gen motherboard that you need to upgrade the ram!
