The build I've shown is only based on the price point of what I saw you've chosen yourself. It can be changed if the budget isn't there for it

The motherboard will be compatible with i5/i7's although I probably wouldn't put an i7 or high-end i5 in it, since it's a budget board. If you'd like to put an i5 in it, something like the 6500 would be fine.
If you want to, you could wait for AMD to come out with Ryzen, to see wether that's something you'd like to get
