Can you suggest any compatible MoBo and Videocard that will not bottleneck one of their performances.

FX 8350 would be best bang for your buck, though the 6300/6350 would be a close second for those activities...

They will outperform the i5's and rival i7's for performance in media productivity applications and compiling type tasks.
