I'm trying to build my first own desktop. this will be mostly for telecommuting and watching movies. This desktop will be connected to 2 screens: 20" (via DVI) and 37" (via HDMI).
I decided to go for Intel i3-4130, 4GB RAM, 120GB SSD system disk and 1TB SATA.
I'm looking for motherboard with integrated graphics card and HDMI port or motherboard plus graphics card with HDMI port.
Which option is better and gives best value for money? Which particular motherboard (and graphics card) would you recommend?

ASRock H87 Pro4 . Since i3 4130 is Haswell , you already have a video card - it is built in the cpu. This mobo has HDMI port.

This would be a nice MB for you. GA-B85-HD3

Has integrated graphics that is supported only with a CPU with integrated graphics which the i3-4130 has.

You can add a graphics card later on if you ever want to upgrade any.

EDIT:
MB has the video ports that you need too.

it does look nice. the only issue for me is that I want to fit everything into a tower that's 43cm (17") tall maximum. this ATX probably won't fit into mini tower, will it?

there's no HDMI on this one.

if there's no viable cheaper option, i'll probably go with ASRock you mentioned earlier then.

Stick with the Asus board. MSI, has bad QC. Asus, would be a safer bet.
