It works, it's AM2+ which supports AM3 processors.

It may need a BIOS update to support an AM3 CPU.

It'll work, but make sure you update the BIOS, too.

...I wonder whether you've got another CPU so you can actually do the reflash.

You can usually enter the BIOS even though your CPU isn't supported (I have done it a few times before), it will just say "Unknown CPU" in the BIOS and crash under load, but it is stable/safe enough for the user to flash the BIOS.
