That CPU is in the CPU support list so yes;
BIOSTAR says this in CPU support list (just one line of many for reference);
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E8500

Its a 775 socket + Its a G31 Chipset which were made for C2D . The Pentiums used 900 Series Chipset .
Its should work without a Problem but If you can get more Money then please don't buy a out dated Motherboard . If you want to do Gaming then getting a 775 is the Worst Choice .

Is that a bio star motherboard? If so yes it will if you look at the support list here http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=363#cpu I would seek out bios updates first before you install any processor
No, it's not a biostar motherboard. It's "necola".
And I already have the motherboard and Pentium D 820 2.8ghz running on it coupled with a gt 620 and 2gb ddr2 ram, I was getting c2d e8500 3.2ghz for really cheap so I thought will it work on my motherboard? Should I just swap it off?
Because now even Google Chrome lags on this processor and no games can be played even at lowest settings at playable fps(the cpu usage goes to 100%).

In theory all of these should be compatible with your chipset http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_(chipsets)/G31_Express.html it does list the e8500. Sorry if the link doesn't work correctly won't go to the right site. Just highlight and copy from http to .html

You need to highlight from the start of it to where it says .html but that website lists your g31 chipset being fully compatible with that processor.

No such thing as that motherboard weirdly, but the odds are it'll work with that processor as the G-31 Chipset supports that CPU.

I was actually looking at the gains from upgrading to that processor and it didn't look like to much it said at max about 23% Sometimes you can fix cpu usage by typing msconfig and disabling startup stuff that you don't really need. If you are running like 1 or 2 gigs of ram you could also upgrade to 4 gigs which I have found on older systems to help with the cpu usage for some reason

max 23% is pretty good mind you, but if it is going to cost a lot then it probably isn't the best upgrade choice.
I had a Core 2 Duo E7500 with a HD 7770 with 4 GB of Ram . Even after having a Decent GPU I was not able to run Modern Games like Battlefield 4 without Lags .... It was Full of Lags due to the Processor bottleneck . If you wish to stick with your GT 620 then there is no Problem but If you upgrade your Graphics Card then I suggest you to get a Good Processor otherwise Upgrading to new Graphics would be a Total Waste of Money .
