Hi guys, i'm kinda new to the world of gaming pc's and well, i'm not really sure if the motherboard i'm planning to buy, it's a secondhand btw coz i can't afford to spend much, is compatible with the video card that i am planning to buy, which is also a secondhand. any help is much appreciated. here's the details:

Motherboard - GIGABYTE 970A DS3 not sure if rev.1 or rev.2 or rev.3

Any PCIe graphics card is compatible with the PCIe slots on that motherboard. Be careful when buying secondhand, computer parts can be risky buys when used, and you may end up spending more on a used part to find out it is DOA and have to return it than just buying a part new. As previously noted, get a quality PSU, a decent 550w oughta do the trick. Seasonic, XFX, and Antec make great PSUs. Lastly, even though you didn't list it, pick a good CPU. I highly suggest the FX 8320, as it has awesome bang for buck, and can be overclocked to the performance levels of the 8350 with no special cooling.
