This is my first build ever, and doing it for my parents. Mainly the build will be used for connecting it to a TV which will be used as monitor as well. It will be used for browsing, watching & downloading videos. I am looking for a budget HTPC.

I easily decided on 4GB RAM and 1TB HDD

What are all the CPU & motherboard I can go for?I am thinking few CPUs i3-4130, G2020,g3258 or G3220.What are all the advantages of choosing i3-4th gen over the G procs? Since the cost is double, this is an important question. or I am also thinking should I choose biostar A680i-350, Celeron J1800 kind of mini ITX, but worried can they carry out my tasks with ease.


If I can handle occasional photo editing, and very minimal video editing within the same config, then most welcome, though budget is more important than video editing as this is going to be very occasional. Sorry for the big list of questions. I am very new to comp hardware. I am open to any suggestions and comments.

Thanks,
Jammy
