I doubt you will need a Motherboard BIOS update for Compatibility. Depending when the MB was shipped by the manufacturer will often impact the BIOS version. It is not as common to get a MB now with the very first BIOS release. Also you needn't worry about PCI-E 16x 3.0 and 2.0 or even 1.1 when it comes 3D graphics performance . Maybe if you were running tri SLI then the difference would be very marginal. As for the PSU the Corsair CX series is fine for Budget to mid range builds. As for Antec , there a quite a few different versions of a True Power series and all are well made.

but will there be any chance that my amd athlon x4 760k will not boot up after the gpu and every other parts are fitted in?

well I wish i could say for certain that any new Build will boot up 100% of the time first try. Would be nice. Anyway There is no issues to speak of as far as fitting in the GPU, CPU, RAM, sata drives ect. Like with any new build Your going to have to restart a few times before installing the OS. Just remember to make sure the PSU is off before plugging it in.
