Maybe change from an i3 6100 to the i3 6320? That would give you some more clock speed for production programs. Honestly, none of your builds are up to the spec I usually recommend for computers that will be used for more than one primary purpose. I would like to see at least a i5 6500 if you're going to be doing work in 3D applications or apps that actively sync with remote computers/servers.

The i3 build would work better. Not to mention that any boards that will accept the 6100 will also accept the i5 6500. Most will also accept the i7 6700k but I recommend the Z170 chipset for the 6700k.

Point is, the FX series is basically dead, and the 1151 socket yields lots of room for future upgrades.

I am looking for something that's cheap and fast for not only gaming but also for work. Do your answer stay the same?
