A simple google search will tell you if it fits fm2 socket boards/cpus.

"Compatible With: Socket 1156, Socket AM2, Socket 1366, Socket AM3, Socket 1155, Socket 2011, Socket FM1, Socket FM2"

So yeah it will fit.

It will fit your motherboard, however I would only consider a cooler like that if you are overclocking.

Fair enough, if you want to save money and just reduce temps and overclock a little then something like a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO is cheap and very good for the price. Normally you can get a high end air cooler for the price of that average AIO cooler, look at the Phanteks range of coolers if you're interested.
