Hi:

No Intel 3rd gen processor will work in the 8200 Elite.

The best you can do is the i7-2600.

See this info from Intel...

Note
For desktop boards based on the Intel® Q67 Express Chipset, Intel® Q65 Express Chipset, or Intel® B65 Express Chipset, upgrading from a 2nd Generation to a 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ Processor isn't possible.
