That will not work because you are using a AMD processor and a Intel motherboard..will not work because of the PGA on the CPU and LGA on the motherboard (pins mismatch).

If you are on a budget, you can try something like this:

All new parts, path to upgrade to i7-7770K.

Thanks...we originally chose a motherboard that took DDR4. Switched to DDR3 due to the cost, but forgot to check compatibility with the CPU.

Forgot to check the CPU compatibility after we switched motherboards...thanks. Trying to keep it around $650, not including OS. We are in Maine so will be shopping on-line, if that was what you were getting at. I know he plays the COD series and Tom Clancy games.
