Im building a new PC, and I'm only certain about the case cpu and video card I want to put in there. For the cpu I'm looking for a AMD FX 8350 or similar, an gtx 970 graphics card and a cool Master storm scout 2 case. I have no idea about the motherboard or anything that would be suitable for this kind of build, but it would be great if it would be relatively cheap. Thanks.

Maybe put some more wattage in the PSU but otherwise yes, it will do very well. Just make sure you have a nice monitor to enjoy that 970!

why morw wats ? its a 385 MAX TDP watts system  500 is enough
