Yes with other AMD CPU with the same Socket AM3+ .
No, you can't change it to Intel without changing the motherboard with proper socket.
i got the amd fx 8320e processor. I just wanna know if i can change the processor at any time because i might change it to an intel processor or do i have to build a whole new computer ?

Amd and Intel Cpu socket are different, you need new mother board

You can't AMD has FM2 FM2+ and more of that crap Intel usus LGA 1150 or 1155 idk but you can without switching the motherboard the other parts should be fine
MBs can't be designed for both Intel and AMD CPUs because they don't connect the same. There's far too much different going on in the connectors to make it easy to do so. They don't operate under a standard bus design. Similarly, different generations of Intel/AMD chips won't work with MB from an older generation. The electrical and protocol requirements are too different for it to work.
