Hey guys, im new to building a pc and i searched a little bit for somethings beforehand though. I'm on around a 900$ budget for a pc including a good monitor and OS. So basically im on a 700$ PC build budget. I might be able to move the total budget up to $1000 anyway.
But i have my whole build here so far, all i need is a motherboard though, can you find a motherboard that will be compatible with everything else for me? Thanks

I'd go with the 8320 over the i5 because it sounds like there will be a decent amount of multitasking going on with your rig and the amd is better suited to handle it. I know the build is close to 1k but you can tweak it here and there to bring the price down.
