I'm upgrading my processor to AMD 3.4 GHz FM2
A4-5300 Processor.
It requires FM2 socket to connect to a motherboard.Will it connect to a FM2+ socket also?
 
Solution
FM2+ is the newer technology so it will work. If you are ever in doubt whether a processor will work with a specific motherboard then visit that motherboard manufacturers website.

Note: Some motherboards need a bios update to work with newer CPU technology. Your processor will be fine though.
