Same here 
You are being helpful though. I diffidently want something that i can upgrade in the future though.
This is what i'm looking for. I want to build something I can play games on right now and will be update but also be able to update in the future. I want to keep the cost down though. So, all these things i have listed are things bluebaracoda had wrote up for me. This is my first build so a lot of this is new to me.
Are you saying I should maybe look at a different motherboard?

No not at all. I love ASRock, great company IMO.
It is the APU thing, I just don't get it if it isn't for a small form factor build. That is a whole regular size tower you have there.
You could always upgrade your GFx card but would be stuck with the same GPU that your APU is running if you go with that FM2 socket.
I don't know how future proof APUs are. I have little experience with them and just built my first build with an APU just 1-2months ago.
If you want to keep it cheap then stay with AMD. Maybe get a FX-41XX chip on a AM3+ socket. That could hold you off until getting a better GPU like a 7850 or 7950.

Only thing to look out for is the crossfire compatibility with the APU. You can't run "dual graphics" with some cards.
