Couple of points. You are limited to two memory slots on that board so I would recommend getting a single 8GB stick so you can buy a second stick and upgrade to 16GB later.

Also with the i3 you will be CPU limited in some games so if you can't afford an i5, probably better to get a budget card such as GTX 950 or R7 370 to match it so you won't have your CPU limiting your graphics card. Generally I advise getting a quality CPU to start with that will last many years such as i5-6500, as you won't need to upgrade for a long time with a card like that.

However that is your decision to make. Best of luck.
 


From India? If so gimme your budget, I'll try for a better build.

 


An i3 won't bottleneck a GTX970...

 


It will in PC intensive games.

 


i agree with everyone else, it will be an okay build for sure. but if you can atleast get to an i5 that would help!

for $200 more you could get an i7 6700 build minus a dedicated GPU but youd still be doing quite well..

since you are doing intensive gaming then of course ull want one.. ive heard great things about msi's r9 380
