The MB will work but we know the MSI has problem for the QC. Also you should get the fx8320 + cooler like hyper212 to oc because you do need the aftermarket cooler, even you get the fx8350, and one more is the PSU I will get the XFX 550W for $27 after MIR instead of the tier5 RAIDMAX http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

But it looks like you are a little bit late, I don't say you have to get the parts I recommend but...
Here is the list I am sure they will better in price / quality.
