How does this build look? Will be used for video editing(GoPro4 vids- typically 1080p @ 60-80 FPS) and gaming(mainly FPS with your occasional RPG). Thanks in advance for any responses.

The asrock I suggested supports 220 watt FX 9370's
so it will easily handle the 8320 and a very good OC .

It even ha an M.2 slot

The only feature it misses out on from the 990 chipset is running two nVidia graphics cards

The build is good and will game well once you get the clock speed of the processor up to 4 Ghz or so

Thanks for the response. I was orignally going to go with a 970 board but couldnt find one that had all the features I wanted and a huge issue Ive read about recently is the Fx8320s can spike in their wattage usage(Ive read up to ~160 watts has been recorded) and this board supports high wattage CPUs without issue.. and the price doesnt seem too bad for what you get.

My main concern is whether or not these components are good matches for each other, and of course weather or not any part of this will cause a bottleneck
