Can my motherboard support this cpu?

[Rusty_3]

Intel Core i5-2500K Quad-Core Processor 3.3 GHz 6 MB Cache LGA 1155 - BX80623I52500K

MSI B85-G43 GAMING (MS-7816) (SOCKET 0)

Also, would it be worth switching out an i3-4340 haswell for this?

I am mainly using my PC to play Black Desert Online

No, that is too old a CPU. You need an i5-4xxx CPU -- https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B85-G43-GAMING.html#support-cpu

You can find the compatibility list at https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B85-G43-GAMING.html#support-cpu The i3-4340 is quite good, but why not get the i3-4370? It costs a bit less and it's faster. An i5-4460 is more expensive, but you may want to consider it.
