I know, this question has been asked a hundred million times but I now that the Skylake i3 is out I'm not finding as much info on it as I'd like.
I'm building a rig for myself and passing my others on to my kids. I need to do some video editing for youtube (nothing too fancy) and basically play BF4 as maxed out as I can get it. I also play Skyrim, Fallout 4, and the occasional MMORPG.
At this point, my budget for MOBO, chip and memory is about $250, i7 is out and i5 unlikely. I've build a couple PCs but have mainly been a Mac guy because I've done a lot of audio and graphic stuff for the past 20+ years. I'm 44. Yes, I'm old.
Right now I'm considering the i3 6100 or amd 8320, maybe 6300 or 6350. I don't know if I'm going to get deep into overclocking, but I guess it's a possibility. It would be nice if I could upgrade down the line, but not a deal breakers, as I figure that any mobo I buy in this price range could do with an upgrade as well.
I'll be using an EVGA GTX 960 FTW ad I have a Corsair CX850M PSU. I plan of 8gbs of RAM and it's all going into a NZXT h440 red/black.
