That's not the mobo you want for a chip like that. I used one in a FX-6300 based HTPC I used for a while. I could overclock but the power delivery is poor and VRMs/MOFSETS are uncooled. My CPU frequency would throttle with any overclock I tried. If you want to push that chip I would highly recommend something with at least 8+2 Phase with a heatsink.
