The processor needs to match the same connector type. This might seem unclear since the latest Intel consumer socket (LGA 1151) is divided into two versions: LGA 1151 (V1) for CPUs from the 6th and 7th generation on the 100/200 series, and LGA 1151 (V2) for CPUs from the 8th and 9th generation on the 300 series.
Search the motherboard online to find its CPU support details. You should see a list of all compatible CPUs. Next, visit PCPP, type in the motherboard name, and select CPUs to view the supported models. Alternatively, check Amazon listings for the board and its compatible CPUs.
