this is what I got:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113359

AMD A10-7850K Quad-Core 3.7 GHz FM2+

Do I return the CPU and just get a AM3+ CPU and board?

Rest of the PC:
Corsair 750W Modular PSU
Nvidia GTX 960
8GB PC3-10600 RAM
240GB Patriot Blaze
Biostar Hi-Fi A85W (mobo pictured above)

PC is going to be used as a media center / steam box

1. Why buy a APU WITH an dedicated GPU? I could understand upgrading to the GPU later on and using the APU as a regular processor.

2. Why the 7870k? The 7850k is no different in benchmarks although the 7870k is advertised to yield a 10% performance increase. Not woth the extra money for a high clock speed.

3. Use PC part picker for compatibility issues before buying.

Why not get the FM2 cpu that doesn't have an iGPU? It's a lot cheaper because you won't be using the igpu of an APU anyways, especially because you have an nvidia gpu so you can't use stuff like dual graphics.

1. Idk, tbh I don't know why I ever bought an FM2 board. I had different needs before I guess.
2. 7870k was $20 more where I was. But after doing some more research on AM3+ I should just get the FX-6300 for $90. I had a Bulldozer 1.5 years ago that was great.
3. Yeah it was a shitty impulse buy. Needed just one more thing for this PC to be done and I thought that was it. Boy was I wrong.
