mainly esports titles, like overwatch, valorant, rl, rb, emulators, etc. budget is 200.Depends what you're playing, what your budget is, what your alternatives are, what other parts you may have, etc.
Just on a generic level, I wouldn't think it was worth the effort unless you just wanted to play around a bit. We're talking about motherboards now that are at least 15 years old.

would a 550ti work? (i already have a case and psu btw)$200 is tough. You still need the rest of the computer, after all. Or do you have other parts available? I'm asking these questions because it'll be hard for people to give you advice unless we know the whole situation.
And it's hard to say this is that good an idea if you don't already have most of the parts on hand. You can usually get an Ivy Bridge/Haswell era refurbished office PC for $100, slap in a used 1050 Ti, and you'll spend less and get more performance than what you could do with this motherboard.

the 6 core fxUnless you already have all the parts on hand it would be hard to recommend. If you do purchase anything make sure it will be able to be passed up to a new(er) system.
Without knowing the actual CPU and what GPU you are planning to use...it would be a good idea to go check the minimum specs for the desired games and see where this system falls.
I just resurrected an FM socket board with an A10 5800K in it alongside (2) R7770 in Crossfire. It did a fair decent job in a couple of my older titles. I ran it down to 720P and mostly low settings and it was workable. Crysis 2 played wonderfully and the Hitman Sniper Challenge did really well also. I ran the Ashes benchmark and although a message popped up saying it would not play it, it did get around 50 frames on all lowest settings. IDK if that is helpful for you or not, lol.
Where are you located geographically?
(edit for name of CPU)
And what is the exact PSU?would a 550ti work? (i already have a case and psu btw)
corsair cx750m (may be upgraded) and yes i have 2 gpus on hand. (550 ti and gt 710)And what is the exact PSU?
It's hard to give you helpful advice when the actual details only come out in the tiniest crumbs. Do you have any other parts on hand?
got the green label, i may buy a gtx 1050What color is the label on the CX? If there's any bright green lettering, I would not use that with any GPU that requires supplementary power, as those are ancient units that were quite mediocre when they were released.
got the green label, i may buy a gtx 1050
other specs are 16gbs of ddr3, 120gb ssd (+ an external drive), amd stock cooler, and if i do upgrade its gonna be a 430w psu from thermal take.That wouldn't be a bad idea as no PCIE power was needed for this and it was a lot more powerful than the 550 Ti.
