what one is better for mid range gaming the fx-8300 or fx-8350 i currently have a 6300 thanks

It may seem odd but the FX-8300 and FX-8350 are actually the same chip, made at the same time, on the same wafer. What's the difference? Testing results. When they make a hundred chips or so on a wafer each will turn out a little better or worse on the microscopic scale. The FX-8300 is guaranteed to be stable a 3.3Ghz @ 95W. The FX-8350 is guaranteed to be stable at up to 4.2Ghz @ 125W. Is it possible to get an FX-8300 labeled chip that can be overclocked higher than an FX-8350 can? It's rare but yes. This is called getting a "golden chip". Don't count on it though. The chip is is probably labeled FX-8300 because it failed the tests that an FX-8350 must pass. It depends on how much cost is a factor to you, but I would at least get an FX-8320. At least that is guaranteed to be stable at 4Ghz which is pretty close to the FX-8350's 4.2Ghz. An FX-8300 might not even overclock on 3.5 Ghz, then again you might get one that overclocks to 4.6 Ghz. It's a toss of the dice but if you pay extra for higher grade chip you will avoid some chips that don't make the grade.

Can this cpu go on a ga-78lmt-s2p

Yes, It is a AM3+ Socket. I believe your mother board ga-78lmt-s2p is an am3+ socket.

Is this compatible with the asus m4a78lt-m m4a78lt-m/cm1630 m4a78lt-m/cg1330 motherboard if not got better options for cpu's for gaming ?

You need to go to the Specific Product Support Page at ASUS. There will be a CPU Compatibility list there that will tell you if it is compatible or not.
