The new coffee lake cpus came out recently and i’ve been waiting to buy an i3-8100 for a new budget gaming build, but with the cheapest z370 motherboard available costing just as much as the cpu I am very close to going to ryzen. I think im going to buy the i3-8100 and the $120 z370 motherboard and once the cheaper motherboards come out im gonna sell my used motherboard and buy a new one. Is this a good idea? or what should I do to get the new coffee lake cpu? sorry if i sound like a noob i’m new to pc building
 
Solution
It may be awhile before budget motherboards are released. Also, a used Z370 may only sell if it is prices the same or less than a new budget mobo. Remember, used parts have no warranties, so they have to be priced low enough to entice potential buys.
