Hi there its my first time here, im from spain, so sorry for my bad english, and i have a AMD FX Series FX-8350 4.0Ghz 8X Black Edition. But in order to use it i need to upgrade my motherboard and wanted to upgrade my graphic card too. I was using this web to decide but dont know if i can trust it so read somewhere that tomshardware is the best place to ask. Looking at that web decided on this mobo: Asrock 970 Pro3 R2.0 and this gpu Sapphire R7 265 Dual-X 2GB GDDR5, cause of my budget couldnt look for anything too much expensive, oh and wanted to now a nice cooler for my cpu too, thxs. Oh and i forget to add that i want my pc mainly for gaming, got my cpu from a friend but i dont have much budget so picked that mobo cause it was only like 80 dollars in the web i use to buy, and the gpu its like 190 dollars aprox cause my prices are in euros. Any advice then on the mobo if that one isn good for overclock having in mind that budget of aprox 300 dollars? And thxs for the answering, looking for that cooler now.

For the motherboard, when using an 8350 on a budget I recommend the Asus M5A99X Evo R2.0. It ranges between 105-115 euros which should be just a tad over or should be in your budget. What power supply do you have? Sorry have been busy these days, but maybe i can have some more budget, so i see some of you say GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P would be the best chipset 970 mobo for my cpu and so, but if i can afford a litle more and go for this Asus M5A99X Evo R2.0 like shin said, or there is another better for my cpu beside that one btw those 2 or aprox in the budget like this asus. Now that i have more budget would love to know what mobo suits perfect for my cpu and what gpu would be a nice combo to get too plz.
Thxs for all the help.

Thxs for all the help. Ultimately the best motherboard for your CPU is the Asus Sabertooth 990fx rev.2. The best GPU combination would be a 280x or a GTX770.
Even getting the Asus M5A99X Evo R2.0 cant afford for those gpus. So its better to go for a chipset 970 mobo to afford for a better gpu like a 270x then?
I already have the cpu its cause i asked about this one, got it really cheap from a friend but its hard for me to buy things that combo well with it. Looked through shops and seen this one Sapphire R9 270X Dual-X 2GB GDDR5, should be nice enough if i reduce the mobo to 970 chipset? Yeah, get the ga-970a-ds3p and if you can try and find an MSI 270x Gaming TwinFrozr in your budget as they have quite a large overclock and they're cooler + they have functions to reduce dust.
