It should be compatible, even the "new" parts you have selected are old and slow, but there's not much else you can upgrade too without a new board.

Although some AM2+ boards will work with AM3 socket CPU's with a BIOs update. Thats one seems to be one of them in which case you could get this and it should be better than that Athlon.
