Hi Mate,
You are looking for motherboards that are either pin 1156 or 1155 please see the links below, mainly most 1155 are compatible with the above, 1156 are compatible but then some only support i5 and i7, when you see a 1155/1156 pin board make sure you check on the hardware manufactures website for specifications as most of them actually "TEST" most CPU's for quality assurance purposes and will have a spreadsheet which tells you if i3 530 & i3 540 is compatible. for ex: http://www.asus.com.au/product.aspx?P_ID=qWmZUAdNKeozTOXb&templete=2 as you can see asus have a CPU support section and specifies your cpu's and if they will work.
