This one (ADO5200DOBOX) http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon%2064%20X2%205200+%20-%20ADO5200IAA5DO%20(ADO5200DOBOX).html

The 5200+ is listed as compatible with that motherboard found here http://uk.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_AM3Plus/M5A87/#CPUS
The the 5200+ will fit the AM2+, AM3 and AM3+ sockets but some boards may not support the processor (notably some AM2+ boards)
