What do you use the computer for/ intend to use it for?

Hi thanks for asking! It's for my boy and he wants to edit Vidio and hopefully build his spec up from the poor budget he has. So long as he can add ram maybe upgrade the CPU at a later date better graphics and sound that would be great. I think the main thing is he wants to build it!

Cheers

He wants future upgradeability though... not that big a difference in prices, at least not enough to get an i3 processor.

I'd rather spend money on the more important things, like a motherboard, than skimp and save to get a slightly better processor. I did this with my first ever computer and it helped me in the years to come with the ability to upgrade both GFX and CPU to improve computing performance when needed.

That's what I'm looking for upgradeabity I also have a laptop with an i3 would this possibly fit in the new board??
