If you want Intel, wait till coffee lake, i5 8400- best performance to price of the lot compared to last gen

If open to Ryzen

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming 3 AMD B350 (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £101.99
1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD416G30= £119.50
1 x AMD Ryzen 5 Six Core 1600 3.60GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £179.99

Total: £411.98
(includes shipping: £10.50)

Will do just as well

Only know Gigabyte is only one to have UK RMA center - but again, does always relate to quicker repair time .

That are an Asus board for Bios !
