Get the G4560 processor right at the same performance, higher wattage power supply to allow for future upgrades, better gaming video card the GTX 730 is really not even considered a gaming card.

Same CPU (performance wise)board should be able to update bios via qflash to support the CPU, 100x better GPU and power supply cheaper by a hair

I would be scared to use that B150 board with that processor because of BIOS's issues and would never buy a CX power supply (old model)

You're totally right I thought I clicked this board originally and never looked back at the build. Needs to be a gigabyte board for q flash
