I'm thinking of buying a new MSI GTX 970 but I'm not sure if my APU is powerful enough. I've looked at a few guides on this forum but they don't cover my APU. I mainly play PUBG and H1Z1. Would there be a bottleneck?

You should be fine when working with the A10-7850K. I'd be skeptical about overclocking on that board due to lack of proper VRM heatsinks but at stock clocks and at 1080p gaming you should be fine. Mind you, you didn't include the model number for your secondary Samsung monitor so your results will vary a little when taxing the GPU with a dual display.
