I am creating a gaming PC for e sports games and possibly some mid settings on some AAA titles. I think my CPU and GPU should be good enough, but is this motherboard ok? I'm worried that it will hold me back from the pc full potential.here is the link to the pc part list:

In your build you don't have either RAM or a PSU.
Also that FX-4300 will bottleneck almost every GPU on the matket (except the GT 1030 maybe). That CPU architecture was really bad back then... imagine now.
I made a build for you... is more expensive, but better balanced and fully functional.
