I recently broke my motherboard and processor lately
Now I'm planning to buy a new one

I really don't know what to choose
I have a budget of around 240$ (11,000Php).for processor

I already have a GTX 650 2gb gddr5
4x4GB RAM
500w strike x (non modular) psu
And a generic case

I also planning to buy a case
Budget: 70$ (3000Php)
It's kind dusty here so i was thinking of the case would be equipped with dust filters

I'll be using the PC for Gaming but my brother enrolled with a course of Information technology major in animation and game development
Thanks in advance

For around 50$ more you can get an i5 setup with an i5 4570 and a GIGABYTE GA-Z87-DS3H LGA with this you can upgrade the graphics card without bottleneck. I recommend this but if you don't have enough money you can get something like an i3 4340 with a cheaper motherboard, but it is a dual core processor and this setup won't be good at all if you upgrade your graphics to something like a 760 or 770

For the case I would recommend a zalman z9 that is so good looking, with lots of space and you can expand it with more fans for your budget. If you want to pay around 10$ more you can get a z11 with more space and fans but a z9 is really good.

It can be a great idea, I would recomend this mobo: ASUS Z87-A LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard. It is pretty similar to the another but with 2 pci 3.0 x16 ports so if you buy another 650 your processor will manage it perfectly. The problem with 2 gtx 650 is the psu, i'm not sure at all about if 500w can manage two 650, but i think that it will work well because a 84w processor like the i5 with a single 650 consumes about 240w under load so an sli will consume about 400w under load.
