Want to buy R9 270X and FX 9370 : Help me pls

[Abhise]

Hello, experts. I'm here again with a new question. My new system has a XFX R9 270X graphics card. I also have Corsair VS 650 psu for power supply. Now I want to buy a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 Motherboard
and a AMD FX 9370 processor. Also I want to upgrade my RAM up to 8 GB (I have 6 GB now). My question is, can I power up all these to play Ultra high quality games?????thanks in advance.

You can see on the CPU Support List - http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3901# - that your motherboard doesn't support the fx9370 anyway. Bios won't let it work.

But i7baby , I have a mobo......Gigabyte H61M-S2P which supports LGA1155, so can I buy an i7-3770k processor as it supports LGA 1155??? Will my Corsair VS650 psu be able to power it up???

You said "Now I want to buy a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 Motherboard and a AMD FX 9370 processor"

yes, this is one my best choices.....but it doesn't matter if I get an i7......so pls tell me

Get Core i5 ! i5 3570K for instance

Will an i7 3770k be good for my system....I mean will my mobo and psu be able to handle this processor to give it's best???

for gaming 3570K is enough . Moreover it is unlocked, you may overclock it ! i5 3570K can feed even GTX Titan !

Edit : Try with your mobo . If you were not pleased, ypu could get a new Z77 mobo . VS 650 is enough . It has 50A on +12V rails =600W and two 6+2 pin power connectors .

Yes you will be find. But you will get a much better perfromance if you overclock. And don't forget that CPU cooler.
