    Core i3-2100

    Explanation:

    The LGA1155 socket is used in CPUs based on Sandy Bridge 2nd generation and Ivy Bridge 3rd generation microarchitectures. It was introduced in 2011 along with 2nd generation CPUs. It was succeeded by LGA 1150, and the LGA 1156 was its predecessor. The LGA1155 have been out of production for a long while now. Since the LGA1155 is used in 2nd and 3rd generation CPUs, it is safe to say that the core i3-2100 is the only one 2nd generation CPU from the choices given above that supports the computer. The others belong to the 8th and 6th generation respectively.
