Your motherboard requires bios level 2.10 to support your cpu. It was released 5/2012. If you bought very old stock, a bios update will be needed.
Look on the box label, it should tell you what bios level you have.

I would return the motherboard.
Otherwise, you will need to install temporarily an earlier supported cpu so you can do the bios update.
Here is a list of supported cpu's and their bios level needs:
