What is the chipset for an i5-3330? Any cheap compatible motherboards?

[poytochez]

I want to replace my dell's motherboard that has a i5-3330 in it. I also want to change the case and power supply so no worries about that. But I need to know a cheap motherboard that works with it. Any ideas?

Decent 1155 boards are rare , EBAY is probably your best bet.

Most major online retailers still carry lga1155 boards but not cheaply. eBay is the best place to look since you can find them much cheaper, you
will want a H77 or a H67 that has been flashed for support.

This one will work.

Can I ask why you’d pay to move an older, entry level chip onto a new mobo and case when there won’t be any performance improvement and limited upgrade path (to other old processors from eBay)?

Trying to add a gpu that wont fit in your case (or too small psu)?

My guess is for a budget since he has a i5 right now since it looks like a cheaper option than buying a current CPU/MB/RAM..

He is essentially building a hole new computer "Case/Power Supply/MB/GPU" It would make more sense to start at a entry level AM4 or LGA1151 although nearly $200 more expensive. I guess it comes down to the use and $$$ to spend.
