Hi guys, I was thinking about building a new PC and I need a mobo and a psu recommendations, so this is what I already have:

-FX 9590 (new) + Hyper 212 Evo

-Vengeance 16gb (new, https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-2x8GB-Desktop-Memory/dp/B006EWUO22/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1469119993&sr=8-2&keywords=corsair+16gb+ram I put the link because I was reading that this ram got some problems with some mobos)

-R7 360 (3 months of use)

-2 SSD Adata 480gb (1 year of use)

and I was thinking about:

Msi 970 Gaming Series (https://http2.mlstatic.com/mother-msi-970-gaming-series-amd-am3-ddr3-sli-usb3-oc-gamer-D_NQ_NP_582421-MLA20765641270_062016-F.webp)
or
Gigabyte Ga-990fxa-ud3 (https://http2.mlstatic.com/motherboard-gigabyte-ga-990fxa-ud3-r5-importador-directo-D_NQ_NP_528611-MLA20613107484_032016-F.webp)

and

PSU Nzxt 700w (https://http2.mlstatic.com/fuente-modular-nzxt-pc-gamer-700w-real-80-plus-sli-crossfire-D_NQ_NP_768311-MLA20526721392_122015-F.webp)

what do you think?

Well, The 9590 is a terrible terrible CPU. Its over 200w hungry and would cook on any budget motherboard and explode on an aircooler as small as the 212.

Also 2 480gb SSDs? Maybe go for one and use the rest of the money for a better graphics card.

I recommend you go for a FX-6300 with the 212 evo, maybe a gtx 950 if possible, if not the r7 360 can still work and also go for a more reasonable PSU like 550w(with 700w you could run two GPUs).
