Is this mobo compatible with my system?

Typical. I think my mobo has just gone. Will either of these two suit?

They're AM3+, my CPU is an AM3

Most amd boards are backwards compatable for there cpu's so yes they will work.

CPU support list for the Gigabyte is here. CPU support list for the Asus is here. Your cpu is on both of them so you are good to go. I would probably go for the Gigabyte because it has cooling for the vrm's.
