Changed My Total Plan!

ProGamer1395 · Feb 10, 2017

So as i told in my previous threads that i m getting a new processor for my upgrade. So, i asked my friend about the motherboard i was going to get and he told me "dont get a H110M, get a better one". So, my mind totally change and my new build is here:-
Intel Pentium G4560
HyperX Fury Black 8GB DDR4 Ram
Circle Gaming Cabinet CC 821
ASUS GTX 750 TI
Corsair 500watt PSU
and the main one:
"ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming AURA/RGB Motherboard.

I hope its good and one more question "Will my motherboard support my CPU?"

Edit: Here is the most current plan.

You will be fine with a H270 or B250. I would not get a Z170 right now as they require a recent bios version to work with kaby lake cpu, there is no guarantee that current stock that retailers have will have a compatible bios.

In addition to the comment above, sure, H110 is a vew budgety mobo, but going for a Z1/270 mobo with a Pentium CPU is not going to help at all.
You would be throwing away all the overclocking features it has.

Stick with a H270 or B250 for that CPU. They are definitely better than any H110 mobo are cost efficient for that CPU as well.

Problem with getting a 100 series chipset with a Kaby lake(7th gen) cpu is they require a bios update to work, if the board comes with an older unsupported bios it won't post and few boards support updating the bios with an unsupported or no cpu present. You'd be better off getting a 200 series board like a B250, H270, or Z270. With a G4560 a B250 would be a good option assuming you can find one that has the features you want(likely not a problem where you originally had a H110 selected).
Another possible issue is the PSU the only 500w Corsair I know of is the CX and you dont want a 500w CX as they are not reliable units. The Corsair CXM 450 and 550w units are good but they are based on a newer better platform.

I like the cpu/gpu combo for a balanced gamer.

If you buy fresh stock with a 1xx chipset, it will come with the latest bios that supports the kaby lake processors.
I might expect the box to say so, if you can examine it.

I would buy a 2xx chipset regardless. It opens up the way to some future upgrades.
If you have no prospects of ever upgrading to a K processor(i3-7350K looks interesting) then stick with an entry level B250 motherboard.
I don't think they should be significantly more expensive.

On ram, buy a 2 x 4gb kit to get faster dual channel operation.
If you ever want 16gb, buy your 2 x 8gb kit up front.
Simply adding ram later may not work, ram is supported only in kits.
If you might want a "K" upgrade, buy a Z270 based motherboard to permit that future upgrade.

I will upgrade my CPU to i7 7th generation after sometime but the time is not now.

Z270 is out of my budget. Which one is good in B250 and H270?

geofelt · Feb 10, 2017

There is probably nothing to make you want to pay more for a H270 motherboard over a B250.
Here are the differences:

The operative consideration for Z270 is not I7, but if you might want to upgrade to an overclockable "K" processor in the future.

Wait. You may see prices drop on the Intel side. MAYBE.

Ryzen is expected at the end of this month or in the beginning of March. So it seems you really don't have a choice. You have to wait until after the release.

ProGamer1395 · Feb 11, 2017

I will wait and my total budget is 500$

ProGamer1395 · Feb 12, 2017

How about an i3 7350K and the same motherboard???

Looks good, get cooler master hyper 212 evo... Great for the budget and I think you can find it for 27$

ac13044 · Feb 12, 2017

ProGamer1395 :

I5 are generally better as i3 has 2 cores and hyperthreading. I5 has fours cores and no hyperthreading.

ProGamer1395 :

Hm.... the fact that you said you can't change the GPU means that you already have it? (Just my guess).
So 500 for everything excluding GPU or including?
