Just got this message on my PCpartspicker list

'Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs'

Is this going to be an issue for this build?

Also what do you guys think this build will run like? Will I get good FPS and overall speeds of the system?

Thanks!

Standard caution but if you are buying new MB shouldn't be a problem. those processors are on the market few years now.
That case will be pretty crowded though.

Thanks!

Crowded due to the CPU cooler you think? I was looking at a water cooled one instead tbh.

How do you think this system will handle gaming?

Also crowded due to the size of MB and all the stuff that goes with it, in my opinion. That V8 is a BIG cooler, needs a lot of space and air to function properly.
Otherwise, everything is pretty much well matched, performance depends also on kind of games, resolution you run them on and their dependence on processor or GPU. Some are also very badly optimized and seems like even a mainframe computer would have problems with them.

What would you recommend I do?

I'll be playing mainly MMO's and MOBA's like Wow and Lol.

I'll dip in and out of games like Rust, H1Z1, CSGO and a few other FPS style games.

I'll want to run them at at least 1080p for now.

Do you mean that some games are badly optimized or some of my components?

Thanks a bunch!

So with my game style you think that build will be okay?

Just switch out the CPU cooler and possible the case too and I'll be good for those games at those specs?
