Hello, experts. I'm here again with a new question. My new system has a XFX R9 270X graphics card. I also have Corsair VS 650 psu for power supply. Now I want to buy a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 Motherboard
and a AMD FX 9370 processor. Also I want to upgrade my RAM up to 8 GB (I have 6 GB now). My question is, can I power up all these to play Ultra high quality games?????thanks in advance.

I would personally say get a FX-8350 and just overclock it yourself to the speed of the FX-9370. The FX-9370 is basically an overclocked version of ghr FX-8350 if I am not mistaken.
And don't forget if you do prefer the FX-9370, it will overheat a lot. And you will need throw in some cash for a CPU cooler.

DO NOT get the FX9370. It is just a overclocked FX 8350 with a nightmarish thermal threshold(with BARELY better performance). Get the FX 8350/8320/8370E and cooler and overclock it yourself.
You will need a better graphics card to do "Ultra high quality games". Try for a GTX970.
What is your complete budget? Where are you purchasing? Online store? Link?

Best solution
I think more people are looking at 9370's because their prices have just dropped. But to run them you need a more expensive 220W capable motherboards and a very good CPU cooler. These more than cancel out any price drops.
AMD also released a new FX8370 and its lower powered cousin the FX8370E. I would highly recommend you using these CPUs instead. And make sure you have a good 990fx motherboard.

I do not have much budget friend, My budget is around 35,000 INR ( $450), and as I'm from India.....I do buy from flipkart or Amazon. These are the largest online stores here. So pls tell me considering this criteria. thanks

In my opinion, I would change the CPU to a FX-8350 and get a CPU cooler. And then change the PSU a to a one from tier 1-2 (link to the PSU tier list will be listed below).

You are better off with an 8320/8350/8370EOr just swap to intel, 4690k and a nice Z97 motherboard
Should I buy this motherboard???

You can see on the CPU Support List - http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?p... - that your motherboard doesn't support the fx9370 anyway. Bios won't let it work.

Try and base your build on this :

Motherboard: Biostar TA970 ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($59.99 @ Newegg)
Video Card: Asus Radeon R9 280X 3GB DirectCU II Video Card ($237.30 @ Newegg)

If there is money left, get a GTX970 or FX-8320, depending on what you can afford.
