The motherboard is good if you plan on sticking with your fx 6300 cuz it has no support for 125w psus like the 8150 or 8350.. There are better micro ATX mobos from gigabyte..you can have a look at em

All motherboards are compatible..it depends on the architecture of the cpu. Yes, your processor is compatible with Linux

I have one, and it works (16GB, fx8350), running kubuntu 14.04 64 bit, kernel 3.14.1.
All the info I needed was here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2111223&page=4&s=136a7d02b731b015ae53b10e77461339
especially the posting which said "If you add GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="iommu=soft" to /etc/default/grub then run the command sudo update-grub in a terminal. usb 2.0, usb 3.0, and ethernet should all work. Also don't forget to disable iommu in the bios."

Have fun!
