if i spent graphic card part money on amd 8350 then is it good deal ?

without graphic this processor support games? If answer is yes then i will spend year latter on graphic cards.and this mother board dont suopport 8350 as i heard(not sure).

Fx 8350 don't have built in gpu,so you need to get gpu with it.

970 chipsets supports all fx cpus.

other option is you can get i5 4440 + b85 mobo @ 18.5k

yep you can consider that,but you need gpu also with it - get gt 610 @ 2.6k with it

get branded cabinet also,it worth the price

sell your monitor to get another 3.5k-4k and try to get the following.
fx 8350 - 12.5k
asus m5 a97 evo r2,0 - 8k
kingston hyperx blu 4gb - 2.5k
amd r9 270x - 15.5k

ANd what you will do with that smaller sized SSD? OS will take around 30GB of it and do you think 30GB is okay for you?

Initially it occupies 18-20gb but as you start installing more applications,it needs more space to store data pertaining to those apps and therefore it ideally requires around 30 gb in total for optimal performance.

It would be wise to wait, get some more money and invest on atleast 128GB SSD if you really want to throw in a SSD.
Its better not to waste money on a 64GB one.

Reason:: SSD is used for OS and application that you want to run with higher transfer rate (for example, games). Now with your 20-30GB being occupied by OS and related apps, how much space are u left with for any games to be loaded in? 30 GB? A base game of BF4 will load into it and you will have to find space for even the DLC's
