Are these compatible? MB + CPU

[Celilofalls]

I am compiling parts to put together a budget gaming PC, and I was wondering if these two parts worked together:

MB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131795&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-RSSDailyDeals-_-na-_-na&AID=10521304&PID=4176827&SID=n0zk5ub1cxuj

CPU
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103996&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-RSSDailyDeals-_-na-_-na&AID=10521304&PID=4176827&SID=18uupwmutnr6p

Powered by a Corsair CX500 PSU
other info:
6850 Sapphire Radeon HD video card
500 gb barracuda HD

Would I be better off using a
AMD Phenom II X4 960T Zosma 3.0GHz Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103996&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-RSSDailyDeals-_-na-_-na&AID=10521304&PID=4176827&SID=18uupwmutnr6p

for my gaming rig, on another note. ?
Thanks for the help!

Yes, they are compatible and yes you would be better off using the 960t for a gaming rig.

 

[Celilofalls]

Thank you! I am relatively new to PC building obviously. I assume that the phenom is also compatible and go ahead with that.

I appreciate the help. I will be off to the shopping cart gallows now...

Yes that will work. The CPU is AM3+ and the motherboard is AM3+ so they will work together.

 

[Celilofalls]

Ah I see. I was uncertain if there was a certain wattage or other requirements for running CPUs by the MB.

If your unsure its best to go on to the motherboard manufactures website and look up your motherboard model then look up the CPU compatibilty list. This is the list from ASUS http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_AM3Plus/M5A78LM_LX/#CPUS
