The motherboard and processor aren't compatible and won't work together, but the AMD FX 8320 or 8350 will work with it, well basically any fx processor

have to pay attention to both cpu and mobo sockets. Right now you have a FM2+ cpu socket with an AM3+ mobo socket

Any AMD FX processor including the 8350, 8320, 6300, or 4300. The best out of those is the 8350 if you were wondering
