If you don't buy that MB yet, you are better to buy other one like some of 970chipset, not the 760 chipset MB for the fx8 series cpu, you will have problem in near future because the 760 chipset MB has lower power phase count, you need other MB like ASUS M5A97 R2.0, ga-970a-ud3p http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4717#ov , MSI gaming http://www.msi.com/product/mb/970-GAMING.html#hero-specification those have more power phase count for the fx8320. More info http://www.overclock.net/t/943109/about-vrms-mosfets-motherboard-safety-with-125w-tdp-processors

Also you have the r7 250, for some of games you will not have higher fps.
