Identify your board firstly:
You can get the aa number and look for information on the internet.
Or you can check in the bios
Otherwise, use the intel motherboard identifier tool http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-010687.htm Click Here
Then go to the specific motherboard website
Check for the supported/compatible processors.
You can get information of the CPU on the link below:

You need to know your motherboard to see what's compatable.
