HDD: 1TB SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 32MB Cache 7200RPM HDD (Single Drive)
MEMORY: 8GB (4GBx2) DDR3/1600MHz Dual Channel Memory (Corsair or Major Brand)
MOTHERBOARD: GIGABYTE 970A-DS3P AMD 970 ATX w/ Ultra Durable 4 Classic, On/Off Charge, GbLAN, 2 PCIe x16, 3 PCIe x1, 2 PCI (Pro OC Certified)

You should get a motherboard with the 990FX chipset, you get way more for your money and better overclocking, from what I understand.

 

[patrick82439]

would that cpu work with that motherboard with the 970 chipset?

For sure.

I would suggest buying fx 8350 instead. You need top of the line motherboard and cpu cooler with 9000 series cpus.
