Hello everyone!

I am building a new pc and it is my first time building a pc.
I have been doing alot of research on what hardware to put into my build. And I would like for some of you guys to look at the build and check if it's okay.

Power suply: Corsair CX500M - 500W PSU
Processor: AMD FX6300 Black Edition 6 Core
Motherboard: Asus M5A78L-M/USB3
RAM: Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 Vengeance 8GB
Graphics Card: MSI NVIDIA GTX 970
Cpu cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

I am really looking forward to a respond :)

It will work, but:

1. 500W are not enough for you're build, also the CX PSUs from corsair are not so good. Get a 600W from Antec, SeaSonic of XFX, 80+ Bronze certified at least.

2. You will experience CPU bottlenecks at many games using the FX 6300. FX CPUs in general are not good for high end gaming. If you want to fully use your GTX 970, get a core i5-4460 at least.
