Hi everyone.

I'm Building the following system and I need to know the pro's and con's on the CPU and MOBO selection and if the combination will work or give problems.

AMD FX AM3+ 8350 CPU
MSI 970 Gaming MOBO
MSI GTX 970 Graphics card
32 GIg Ram 1600Mgh
Thermaltake Water-cooling 3.0 PRO
760Watt Power supply

Do you guys think ill have issues with the MOBO and CPU combination and is the CPU cooling unit ok for this?

Thanking everyone in advance :)

There is a cheaper Gigabyte motherboard that will o.c better but generally the 990fx boards perform better with 8-cores.
AMD recommends 1866mhz ram and 32gb is pretty overkill for a gaming build.

There seems to be some stipulation with Nvidia's new arch working with AMD cpu's that I would like some clarification on.

Awesome thanks, do you think that ill have problems with the MSI 970 Gaming board or could the chip overheat given the cooling system mentioned? I'm not going to overclock the CPU though.
