I am hoping to get certain parts for a new pc build that will be better than the one i have, I have confirmed these parts to be better and checked compatibility with each other and i think they're good but I want some others to double check my work and find out if they will work out with each other (I already have a few parts so dont say that i cant even build a pc with that stuff 😛)

Edit: I also have a 500W psu and Evga Nvidia Gtx 960 2GB or what ever i know its an nvidia card made by evga
 


the cpu is apparently clockable to 4.2 but what would you recommend?
im also an a bit of a budget and max i can really do is around $150

Quick edit: I looked into the Fx-8350 which is much better would there be compatability issues there, Also thanks
 
The amd fx 8350 is my favorite amd cpu and no it will have no compatibility issues with your motherboard. In the future if you have enough money I would recommend getting an msi 970 or 990fx gaming motherboard. Both are great but the 990fx is slightly better for both overclocking and 8 core processors. Msi also makes some of the best and coolest motherboards.

 


Thank you I will be looking into that particular mother board mainly because ill get the best i can get for a good price (im getting the motherboard and a case for a birthday present so idk how far i can push my relatives in terms of price) anyways I may switch to the MSI 970 because ive heard of good things and its not much more than the one i was going to get so ill see what I can do

Thanks man
 
You're welcome, but just to let you know there are some unlucky people who have received a defective msi 970 gaming where the capacitors near the cpu would start leaking. If it unfortunately happens to you, just let the msI customer support know cause they'll replace any damaged parts and give you a brand new motherboard.
Happy Birthday:)
