I would buy an AMD FX-8350, MSI 970A-G43 PLUS, HyperX kit 2x8 GB 1866 MHz DDR3 and MSI GeForce 970 GTX for gaming, but I would first make sure that they are compatible with each other, I would be grateful if you answered me!

Also I would like to ask your opinion about this configuration, what do you think? These components would form a good PC? If I have done something wrong forgive me I am no expert!

Does The 970 GTX Bottleneck Using An FX-8350 CPU?

Thank you!

Sorry for my bad english

If you want to stick with the FX-8350 i don't see anything wrong with that. I've built to machines with that chip and it overclocks easily to 4.5ghz+ (though running a little hot, you'll need an aftermarket cooler) and chews through anything I've thrown at it.

I would reccommend an RX480 over the gtx 970 if you're sticking with the AMD chip. Also, you may want to check ddr 1866 against FX processors, I'm pretty sure you can have a maximum of (2) available dimm slots and only (1) populated to operate at 1866.

Those parts would work fine together but id recommend going to intel or wait for AMD zen to come out, those vishera FX chips are dead now and there is much better options out for a bit more (something like i5-6400/6500). If you do switch to intel make sure to change motherboard and if you go skylake change ram to DDR4
