it certainly will. am3 processors are backwards compatible even with the earliest am2 boards with a proper bios update.

mobo-->http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131343
i was thinking about a 4870, but im pretty sure that isnt compatible, and i need an nvidia card correct?

edit: this one perhaps?http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127409
edit2: thats an overclocked card, i usually stay away from those so nvm on that one
