This page allows you to specify the chip you want, specify the form factor of the board, and specify the manufacturer of your motherboard.

Ensure your motherboard is on the list before buying the chip.
Check the revision too, there can be multiple versions of motherboards like KT3 Ultra and KT3 Ultra2

Maybe this should be added to one of the stickies or something, for a while anyway.
