Hi, I need a new motherboard, processor, etc. So I was check on picking pieces on PC Part Picker, and I found what I think would probably work well.

Here's the list I made http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/Keikuina/saved/kcxRsY

Okay so, personally, I'm not amazing with computers, but I think I can handle myself okay if I follow guides and stuff.

Stuff not on the list like graphic card, Hard Drives, and Optical Drive is because the ones I have still work well.

My graphic card is an ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series (it works so I'm not changing it)
My Optical Drive is by LG.
And my two Hard Drives are WD 500Gb and Seagate 2Tb, 3.5in each.

I just want to know if these would work well together.

According to PCPartPicker, they mentioned this.

Compatibility Notes
Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs.

If you don't mind doing a BIOS update then it is at your own risk.

How would I need to do it? I mean, to update the BIOS.
If anything, I could check for another part instead till I find something that's fully compatible.

Don't worry. I'll look for one.

Thanks a lot! I'll most likely be getting these then.

Also, I can't help but notice this:
"Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case has front panel USB 3.0 ports, but the MSI 760GM-P23 (FX) Micro ATX AM3+ Motherboard does not have onboard USB 3.0 headers."

Just wondering what the problem they see is.
(I really don't think it's a big deal if the Motherboard doesn't have USB 3.0)

It isn't such a big problem but always good to have a case with USB 3.0 if you can afford it. :D

Oooh okay, good to know C:
So does that mean I could use the one I had chosen before and it would work well anyway?
