(My apologies If there's any mistake as English is not my native language)

I am going to buy

Amd fx 8320 and Msi 990FXA-gd65 V2

I am not a hardcore gamer. But yes i play games very much. I am tight on budget to be very honest. I Will buy a descent gpu after 5-6 month. And I am not likely to upgrade in the next 3-4 years. My Question is
1) Is my combination descent for gaming ??

2) Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P and 970A-g43 are cheaper than the 990FXA-gd65 v2. Is it worth buying the msi 990

3) will the combination of 8320 and 990FXA gd65V2 lack behind after 1-2 years......

4) my current psu is thermaltake lightpower 600w black edition. Will it be able to handle the processor+motherboard+saphire r7 260X 2 gb ??

Any kind of information will be appreciated.. Pls help me. As i said i'm tight on budget i want to get the best as possible

Seems pretty futureproof. The 990fx is good overclocking board. and the 8320 can be clocked into 9590 clock range(assuming you have sufficient cooling). all the future games will be taking advantage of more cores so it seems like a pretty nice build.

Yeap thats more then cable of handling them components, may I suggest a 750W though incase you decide to get a r9 290x or similar down the track? you will be majorly gpu bottlnecked with that card thats all.

Thanx for your response.
But i've heard that if i overclock the fx 8320 to 4.0ghz than it wont be bottlenecked,

Well there are 2 main types of bottlenecks, cpu and gpu. Even the cpu on stock (3.5ghz) you will still be GPU bottlenecked. Thats why im suggesting a better psu so down the track you can obtain a better gpu
