Current setup:

CPU : AMD FX-8350
Motherboard :
Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. 970A-UD3
RAM
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 669MHz (9-9-9-24)

GPU : 2048MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series (MSI)

PSU : http://azzatek.com/psaz-600b14.html (Azza dynamo 650W)

I want to upgrade to this GPU
(GTX 970)

I saw that it needs a 6 Pin / 8 Pin and I'm not sure if I have that? Also wondering if everything else would be compatible if I upgrade to that GPU

The connectors on the 970 look identical to your current AMD. Graphics cards are pretty much universal. The only component that has to be matched to the mobo is the connector type on the CPU.
