Will this CPU work with this motherboard

Solution
First of the AM3+ MB can is backwards compatible down to AM2+
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/317582-28-backwards-compatible
So the Phenom II X4 B97 processor is compatible with the A960D+ Motherboard.
As for the AM3 AMD Phenom™ II X4 x960 it hasn't been launched as far as i know. there is only the x960T version of it.

The difference between them is negligible.

I personally recommend an FX processor on AM3+ socket. Something like this: http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/219/AMD_FX-Series_FX-6350_vs_AMD_Phenom_II_X4_B97.html

Furthermore there is a tab here with a list of supported processors for your motherboard...

it is not compatible with your motherboard buy AM3 AMD Phenom™ II X4 x960 3.3Ghz which is supported and same power consumption 95W AND ALOT BETTER
