AMD processor Bundle with Mother Board

[FirstnameLucas]

This is the motherboard -ASRock FM2A88X Killer FM2 ATX AMD Motherboard
This is the processor - AMD A10 7870K 3.9GHz 4 Core FM2+ Black Edition Processor
Would these to be good for a starter PC, When I get more money later on I can swap out the mother board and processor for something intel or something like that, this is what I can afford for now

^^^ AMD ain't worth it right now given that intel does offer budget gaming processors...that honestly perform up to par with their "higher-end" FX 6xxx and 8xxx series processors. Not necessarily in full 8 threaded games, but those aren't all that common. Most games won't use more than 4, which the i3 gives you.

Well I am 16, so my budget isnt too high, But I can swap out parts. The most I wanna spend on a processor and mother board is upper 100 to low 200
