Would it not be possible to drop an FX8320 into that board, surely there is no need to upgrade from 8GB of ram which the OP has, even if it is 1333 that won't make much difference esspecially at sub 1080p.
I wouldn't put a 8320 in that motherboard (you can, yes, but you shouldn't).
You need a motherboard with good power regulation and phase cooling to deal with the power draw on that chip and that board doesn't have it.
I've seen instances where running a 8320/50 at 100% load on that board has caused it to catch fire (no joke).
So, no!
