Can I upgrade my CPU without overloading my motherboard

Hello. I have a LR-J1900N Motherboard http://www.minicase.net/another_LR-J1900N.html

with an AMD FX 4200 Quad Core in it. I was wanting to upgrade to an AMD FX-8350 Octo-Core.

Would my Motherboard be able to handle this?

If not, what are some good options for this motherboard, considering I'd really rather not buy a new one.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

That motherboard comes with an Intel Celeron J1900, as you can see in its name. As far as i understand, it's a soldered CPU, as opposed to a socketed CPU, and it cannot be upgraded (I could be wrong).

Either way, you can't possibly have this motherboard and an FX-4200 in the same PC. Hence, you will need to double-check which component is correct and which is wrong in order to receive advice on possible upgrades.
