Intel Xeon Quad Core Processor E3-1245! (no V?) need a motherboard

[jackreacher1]

I am struggling to find a motherboard for the Intel Xeon Quad Core Processor E3-1245. It is no a V3 just a straight E3-1245.

I got given It and as a newbie I couldn't work out which boards are suitable. I know it is a 1155 socket but the ones I have looked at seem to specifydifferent versions of this cpu..so I have gotten a little lost.

It will be used for allround purposes, with some gaming on Doom etc.

All help appreciated. regards Jack

It should be compatible with almost all LGA1155 motherboards. I know for a fact that it's compatible, with the Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H and the ASRock B75 pro3-M.

Yup, for E3-1245V1 (or without V, it is the first E3-1245 generation), just get any LGA1155 mobo.
This could be a challenge tho'. I can not find any 1155 mobos and processor that easy anymore.

Thankyou both..i couldn't work out the 1155/h2 bit?
I already have the processor and there are a fewmobos on the bay so I will go hunting..
