No, this is for AMD processors. In general, I would not buy a new board for this "old" processor. I would rather recommend that you buy both new. There are cheap combi-packages, CPU and mainboard. You may also have to buy new RAM, but you'll have to see. Otherwise, you may have to look for a used product.
