Really need help! Need answer ASAP

Ok so here's the deal, I bought a motherboard online, I was informed that this motherboard would go well with my cpu so I went for it, the company later e-mailed me saying that the board was out of stock and would take an extra 3 weeks to arrive. I really didn't want to wait so I was looking at alternatives and I found a motherboard which was nearly exactly the same but instead of being a A75 chipset (like the board that's out of stock) this other one was an A78 chipset. Would this make any difference? I have spent hours looking on google but I couldn't find anything, thanks in advance!
CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 750K
The original one I ordered thats out of stock is the MSI FM2-A75MA-E35
The one I was thinking about replacing it with is the MSI FM2-A78M-E35

Ill make that clear,motherboards only work with the same chipsets of cpus,a z87 mobo wont work with a 3770k it just font fit.

No it wont work get the same chipset

It will work fine + it's better mobo(it supports upcoming AMD's APUs).

First problem with any Ivy Bridge CPU is that socket is different then Haswell socket.

So, am I safe to order this A78?

I'm pretty sure that you are, but you can ask Doc or Aborted if you want to make sure.
