Do you have a motherboard? Do you have the operating system? Is it installed? Do you have 2 x4GB or 1 x 8GB RAM?

https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy can show us and you what you have. We don't like the dentist.

If however you are considering staying with that motherboard and OS and only invest $125 you are going to make a side or downgrade. In other words you will waste that money.

Why do you want to upgrade? What will this $125 try and accomplish? What do you do with your PC?

What do you do with the PC? Homework? CAD? PS? Gaming?

We don't(truly dislike) like offering suggestions in the blind.

Nowhere to go on that platform im afraid.
Even the 880k (which is the most powerful fm2+ cpu available) will offer 15% more performance at best if overclocked.

Just not worth the outlay imo.

That motherboard is compatible with that processor without a BIOS upgrade. Pcpartpicker's warning can be dismissed.
