So far I have these parts;
MSI 970 Gaming Motherboard
MSI GTX 960 4gb 128-bit
Raidmax PC Case
Antec 750W Power Supply
AMD FX-6350 Processor
8gb of ram
2tb hard drive
regular dvd-rom

What kind of gaming performance would I get out of this?

The cpu is on a dead socket, No more support and no upgrade path for it. Having 6 cores for gaming is pointless since they only use a max of 4. The per core performance of the 6350 is not as good as a intels i5. You should have got a i5 4460. It would have performed better.

The gpu... You should have got a amd r9 285 or a 280x. Again you would have got better performance from it.

750watt power supply is not necessary for you build. 450w 0r 550w would have made more sense.

Case most likely is poorly built.

Last problem is you have no ssd. Should have got a 1tb and a 128gb ssd.

Return it all if possible.

the cpu came with the motherboard, thats why I got it. and i im still ordering a ssd, gpu, and power supply thats why i havent built the computer yet. was the gtx 970 to much for the rest of the pc? like is it going overboard lol

Is it to late for you to cancel the order for the cpu and motherboard?

I would return it but if you cant then i guess it will have to do. When you upgrade your cpu again in the future your going to have to buy a new motherboard again. Keep that in mind.
