I want to boost the performance of my FX 8300 and possibly the EVGA 1060 SC 3GB. Are my motherboard and power supply sufficient?
Here are my details:
Storage: Faspeed F510 120G
Hard Drive: WD 1TB
Processor: AMD FX 8-Core Black Edition FX-8300 3.3 GHz with 4.2 GHz Turbo Octa core
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Motherboard: MSI 970A SLI Krait Edition
Graphics: EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 SC 3GB (single fan)
Memory: G.SKILL Sniper 8GB (2 x 4GB) - 8GB
Case: NZXT Hush
Power Supply: Corsair Builder CX430 Power Supply
Operating System: Microsoft 10 Professional 64 bit
I know I should upgrade my PSU but don’t have a recommendation, could you share a suitable link for my setup?
Thank you.

If you don't OC you'll be okay with that board and PSU.

When not overclocking, the board and PSU will work just fine.
If I were to try overclocking, would it be beneficial?
