LGA 1151 is one of the most common sockets for desktop computers, which allows for connecting Intel Core processors of different generations. If you are planning to build your own computer or upgrade an existing one, it is important to understand which processors are compatible with the LGA 1151 socket and how they differ from each other. In this article, we will take a look at lists of processors for the LGA 1151 socket and what you should consider when choosing a processor for your system.
About LGA1151 Socket
The LGA 1151 socket is used for Intel desktop processors with Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, and Coffee Lake Refresh architectures. This socket was introduced in 2015 together with the Skylake processors and replaced the previously used LGA1150 socket. Subsequently, processors for the 1151 socket were released, including Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, and Coffee Lake Refresh, as well as new system logic sets.
Socket versions and chipsets
The release of Coffee Lake processors has unofficially divided the FCLGA1151 socket into two separate versions, sometimes referred to as v1 and v2. These are not official names, but are used by users and online stores.
LGA1151 v1 includes motherboards with 100- and 200-series chipsets (H110, B150, Q150, H170, Q170, Z170, B250, Q250, H270, and Z270). Processors with Skylake and Kaby Lake architecture (6th and 7th generation Intel Core) are compatible with the LGA 1151 v1 socket.
LGA1151 v2 includes motherboards with 300-series chipsets (H310, B360, H370, Q370, Z370, and Z390). Processors with Coffee Lake and Coffee Lake Refresh architecture (8th and 9th generation Intel Core) are compatible with the LGA 1151 v2 socket.
To avoid making mistakes when choosing a processor or motherboard, it is best to check the list of supported processors on the motherboard page on the official website of the manufacturer.

Best CPU for LGA 1151 v1
So, it looks like your socket is LGA 1151 version 1, and the most powerful processor for it is the Intel i7-7700K. This processor is commonly found in all-in-one computers and regular PC builds. If you’re on a tight budget and currently have a Celeron or Pentium processor, upgrading to the i7-7700K could be a good move. Just make sure to check if your motherboard supports it before making any purchases.
Now, I want to point out two possible mistakes you might make when upgrading your computer:
1) Don’t buy expensive old hardware, it might not be worth it. Compare prices for modern components, they could be cheaper than upgrading your PC.
For example, I saw one user on a forum who upgraded their Pentium G4400 to an Intel i7-7700K for $350. For that money, they could have bought a new Intel i3-12100F processor, a motherboard, and RAM or an i5-12400 and a motherboard.
2) Don’t try to install i9 processors in LGA 1151 v1 sockets. Many beginners don’t understand the difference between LGA 1151 v1 and v2. I hope you’ve checked the processor lists and realized that i7 is the maximum processor range for the first version of the socket.
For owners of Intel i7 in the first version of the socket who don’t plan to upgrade their computer but want to speed up its performance, you can replace the thermal paste on the processor, increase the RAM (up to 16 GB), disable unnecessary OS load (disable autostart for applications you no longer use, clean up unnecessary data, personalize your desktop, etc.).
Best CPU for LGA 1151 v2 in 2023
The best CPU for LGA 1151 socket depends on your specific needs and budget. However, some of the top options include:
Intel Core i7-9700K
Intel Core i7-9700K is a high-end desktop processor from Intel’s 9th generation of processors. It has eight physical cores that can handle up to sixteen threads with Intel’s Hyper-Threading technology. The processor has a base clock speed of 3.6 GHz, which can boost up to 4.9 GHz for single-core tasks with Intel’s Turbo Boost technology. It has 12MB of L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 2666 MHz with a maximum capacity of 128GB of RAM. The processor has a TDP of 95 watts and is compatible with Intel FCLGA1151 socket. It also supports Intel’s latest technologies such as Intel Optane Memory and Turbo Boost Technology 2.0. The Core i7-9700K is ideal for gamers and demanding users who require fast and reliable computing power.
Intel Core i5-9600K
The Intel Core i5-9600K is a mid-range desktop processor from Intel’s 9th generation of processors. It has six physical cores that can handle up to six threads, making it an excellent choice for gaming and other multi-threaded applications. The processor has a base clock speed of 3.7 GHz, which can boost up to 4.6 GHz for single-core tasks with Intel’s Turbo Boost technology. It has 9MB of L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 2666 MHz with a maximum capacity of 128GB of RAM. The processor has a TDP of 95 watts and is compatible with Intel’s LGA1151 socket. It also supports Intel’s latest technologies such as Intel Optane Memory and Turbo Boost Technology 2.0. The Core i5-9600K is a great option for budget-conscious gamers and users who require reliable computing power without breaking the bank.
Intel Core i3-9100F
The Intel Core i3-9100F is a budget-friendly desktop processor from Intel’s 9th generation of processors. It has four physical cores that can handle up to four threads, making it a suitable choice for basic tasks and light gaming. The processor has a base clock speed of 3.6 GHz, with no support for Intel’s Turbo Boost technology. It has 6MB of L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 2400 MHz with a maximum capacity of 64GB of RAM. The processor has a TDP of 65 watts and is compatible with Intel’s LGA1151 socket. The Core i3-9100F does not have integrated graphics and must be paired with a dedicated graphics card. Despite its limitations, the Core i3-9100F is an excellent option for budget-conscious users who need a reliable computing solution without breaking the bank.
It’s worth noting that these processors are from the 9th generation of Intel processors and are based on the Coffee Lake architecture. And also keep in mind that the above mentioned processors are based on the LGA 1151 v2 socket and are not compatible with the LGA 1151 v1.

What do the letters in processor models mean?
Intel processor model numbers typically include a combination of letters and numbers. Here is a guide to what the letters in the model number signify:
Processors may also have different suffixes (e.g. Core i7 9900KF), which indicate the following:
- K – Processors with an unlocked multiplier (allowing for the customization of turbo limits, turbo voltages, multipliers, etc.)
- P – Processors with a locked graphics core.
- S – Energy-efficient processors with lower clock speeds compared to non-suffixed models.
- T – Highly energy-efficient processors with significantly lower clock speeds compared to non-suffixed models.
- E – Availability of a variant for embedded systems.
- F – Models without a graphics core.
