CPU (Ryzen 5 2400G) compatibility with Motherboard (Gigabyte GA‑F2A88XM‑D3H)

Will an AMD Ryzen 5 2400G be compatible with my Gigabyte GA‑F2A88XM‑D3H? I don't want to waste $159 on an incompatible CPU.


Edit: Thank you for your quick responses, but I've decided what I'm going to do.

Nope, that's a FM2 motherboard, you need an AM4 motherboard for Ryzen.

Ah... well then. Do you have any recommendations on motherboards that would work for a reasonable price?

Hopefully you already know you will need new DDR4 RAM besides the motherboard.

I did not know that, thank you.

This is going sideways at a much higher rate then I was expecting...

What size mobo are you after and what do you want to do with it? Light gaming, htpc, streaming? And budget?

For matx and that price, you can go for newer x470...Gigabyte or Asus or Biostar all have around the price
