That cpu comes with a cooler you can use. If you want to use the aftermarket one you have, you need to confirm it fits AM3+ socket. I don't think it will since I don't think AM3+ was out in 2007.

edit: see below. wisecracker feels it will fit, great news!

I think you're good.

In 2007, Socket AM2/AM2+ was around, and the 'latch' HSF was standard -- even the old s939 solid copper-base/heatpipes will work just dandy on AM3/AM3+.

You can get the FX-4300 for another $5 -- that would be preferable over your current choice.
