CPU compatible with motherboard?

[Logbeast]

Hello i'm looking to upgrade my CPU but i don't know if it's compatible with my motherboard.
The motherboard is a N-Alvorix-RS880-uATX (Alvorix) and the CPU i want to upgrade to is an AMD
Phenom II X4 900e. I just need to know if it's compatible or if there are any other CPUs that are better that i can upgrade to.
Thank you!

You'll see the X4 9XXe chips are supported.

Beyond that chip, the 'best' that's supported is the Phenom II X4 955 (the 95W variant) or the Phenom II X6 1065T
Max TDP for the board is 95W..... greater chips won't run stable as anything greater (including the other variant of the 955) are 125W chips.
