The motherboard will work fine, but I implore you to not purchase that video card. Save up a little bit more and get something that is actually worth the money, like a GTX 750/R7 250X at the minimum.

In that case, alright. The motherboard is fine.

youd  be better off getting a pentium G3258, overclocking it, and pairing it with a GTX 750Ti. That'll give you MUCH higher perf for the same price as you/re looking at paying now. APUs are a fool's purchase IMO.
