I can't say much myself about compatibility, but do yourself a favor and enter all of the parts on pcpartpicker.com to ensure their compatibility. Cheers!

P.S. I think you accidentally listed every part twice - unless you're building 2 computers that is!

Its compatible, but are you sure you want the GTX 750 TI you can get a RX 480 or RX 580 for ~200 dollars, I would say that is way better than the GTX 750 TI and are you also sure you want a FX series CPU, you can go with a I3/I5 that will perform better than the FX chipset. The I3 6300 will run all over the FX 8350.

 

[Thompson_2]

Would you recommend something like Intel - Core i5-7500 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor instead of the FX?

 

[Tyler LM]

Would you recommend something like Intel - Core i5-7500 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor instead of the FX?

Oh yes, the I5 7500 will be 10X better than the FX 8350. I would go with that, but what is your budget?

 

[DRagor]

Don't do that. Unless you were given those parts for free. If you were to pay for them, do yourself a favor and don't buy them. Any FX build now is just waste of money.

As well, if you do end up going for an intel CPU, take the liberty of contacting intel and telling them what you want to do with it. I built a computer for CADing and 3D design, and they helped me find out exactly which chip would perform best for what I wanted it to do (i7 6800K).

Do not get a fx 8350 its 5+ years old already and getting to weak for games today. The 750ti is not worth it anymore as the rx460 and 1050 are quite a bit better for the same price. I recommend you get a G4560 + b250 + gtx 1050ti or gtx 1060 6gb or rx 470/570 or rx 480/580

 

[Thompson_2]

Budget is fairly liberal but wouldn't want to go for anything much more expensive than that i5. Thanks!

Okay so if you go for the I5 will you be able to get a gtx 1060 6GB?

Yea, could do. Do you think everything would remain compatible?

Would the RX 460 be could enough? It's quite a bit cheaper than the rest so that would be nice but I am also considering GTX 1060 6 GB

I would go with the GTX 1060 6GB and if you cant afford it go with the RX 460.

 

[DRagor]

Just don't forget that you need different motherboard and ram if you decide to go for intel CPU.

 

[Tyler LM]

Yeah the MOBO will need to be a LGA 1151 socket and the RAM will need to be DDR4 or DDR3L. For the MOBO depending on the version you will need to have a BIOS update aswell.

What about the GTX 1050 2GB?

 

[Tyler LM]

Its not the GPU thats not compatible its the CPU itself.

 

[Thompson_2]

Yeah the MOBO will need to be a LGA 1151 socket and the RAM will need to be DDR4 or DDR3L. For the MOBO depending on the version you will need to have a BIOS update aswell.

So any motherboard with a DDR4 socket will work? There seem to be many types of DDR4 sockets.

You need to Have DDR4 sots and LGA 1151 Socket if you are going with the Intel CPU I told you about.
