Swap this for an FX8350 and you'll be looking good. The AMD processors starting with "A" have built in graphics cards, which you don't want/need as you are buying a Geforce 670.

Obviously check the motherboard is compatible with this processor.

Also I'd recommend buying a separate heatsink/fan. The supplied one isn't great (hot and loud). The Coolermaster 212 Evo is a popular and cheap choice.

Also what Power Supply?
