Hello,
I have acquired an Acer N1996 motherboard without a processor, apparently with a socket 775.
I can't find the specifications of the motherboard online.
I'm looking for a fully compatible processor.

Thank you in advance for your responses.

I know that an E8400 is compatible, but after that, socket 775 is becoming increasingly outdated and therefore fewer and fewer processors are compatible. Take a look at matériel.net or another retailer by specifying socket 775 in your processor search.

Alright. Is there any other characteristic to take into account?

Hum... while searching I see that the socket is a 478...

Processor Socket Type - mPGA478

Does the photo match?

EDIT: it is indeed 775

you can see the number in the middle and for the brand I have a label on one of the "tour" of the outputs.

Otherwise, if it's 775, there are no other characteristics to consider.
