So I am doing a little bit of upgrading to my pc, and don't want to spend to much, and I was worrying if all of these parts are good, and won't bottleneck anything.

GPU: PNY GeForce GTX 770 2GB Video Card(x2 for sli) http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/983684-REG/pny_te...

CPU: AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor http://us.ncix.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&s...

MOBO: ASRock 970 EXTREME4 ATX AM3+ Motherboard http://www.microcenter.com/product/382952/970_Extreme4_...

PSU: XFX 850W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

The parts I currently have is one PNY GTX 770 2GB Video Card, AMD A6-3600, 6GB DDR3 1333 ram, and my OS is Windows 7 64bit Home Premium. I don't know what motherboard,PSU, or any other parts. Also is it possible for my ram to bottleneck any of the parts? I would really appreciate your guys help, since I am new to PC. I am mainly just worried about the MOBO since i've heard that it's sort of a last generation board.

Unless you are going to be using a monitor with a resolution greater than 1080p or using multiple monitors I would not worry about going SLI as a single GTX 770 can handle any game just fine at 1080p with no problems.

I am hoping to get 2 more monitors next year so that's one of the reasons I want to SLI

It should... the FX8350 should not bottleneck with the GTX 770 on SLI, and if you feel like it did, adding a beefier cooler and OC'ing it should do the trick....

Also, just a single consideration: Try to get one of the 990 FX instead.

Do you think the MOBO is a good choice?
