Will this ASRock motherboard be able to overclock? Also is the stock cooler good enough? https://pcpartpicker.com/product/crs8TW/asrock-ab350m-hdv-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-ab350m-hdv

Yes and yes :D You can overclock with any B350 motherboard and Ryzen CPUs come with very good stock coolers

This is not my first time building a PC but can this pc run these games at 1080p 60+ fps and medium settings or higher? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NW6DRG  The games I'll be playing is GTA 5, Doom, Call of Duty Black ops 3, Call of duty World at War 2 (In the future), and Rocket League

Holy crap! I actually got a Ryzen 5 with it and made it even cheaper! Thanks! https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9W89D8 But where can I get a Powerline Ethernet under $35? And are Powerline Ethernets good?

Yeah, faster than that WiFi.

Get a B350 board so that you can overclock ;)

Yes, and for the stock cooler, yes. Just don't raise voltage too much, try to stay about 1.35v or less, and always monitor your temps and make sure they're below 80c while you're stress testing.

I know this might be dumb to ask but is a powerline ethernet plug in play? (I know I have to plug an ethernet in it) But will it work right away or do I need to do something?

It's simple enough that you just need to follow the manual. (I have one.)

   PLEASE QUOTE OR @ ME FOR A RESPONSE xD
