Thinking of a first build in a $1000 range or lower (Canadian). Planning on getting something like a low tier i5 or i3 as cpu and 1050ti. What price range would you recommend? Should I get a z270 for future upgrading in the future, or just a h270 to save money?
I like the rog strix z270e but it is very expensive for me, even though I would like something nice looking, and I'm wondering if it would be better for future-proofing the build to not worry about it later.
Thoughts?
 
Solution
You only need the z270 chipset over the h270 if you plan to overclock your CPU, other than that there is no difference.
