Hi,
I have purchased a 4th Gen Intel i3 4150 processor.
Will be using 4GB Ram currently with a 1 TB WD Hard Disk and Corsair CX430.
Wont be using any Graphics card since I dont play games. :oops: Even if I buy any graphics card in future, it will be some basic one. Like 1GB DDR5.

I saw few LGA 1150 boards and found out GigaByte B85 D3H pretty good but its not available in my city. :-x The Asus B85 is available here for Rs.5400. For Gigabyte I will have to buy it online. So, should I buy this online or even ASUS is better? :shock:
Or any other Mobo in this range? I basically need HDMI, VGA and USB 3.0 in it. Wont spend more than 6K. :oops::oops::oops:

Thank You. :)

corsair cx 430 is ok without GPU but as soon as you make up ur mind to buy a GPU(even for an entry level) do not forget to change the PSU to be on safe side.

But other people suggested that I can use basic GPU with this PSU. Or else I would have purchased something cheaper. :O
And by basic I mean 1GB DDR5.

the CX430v2 is FINE for GPUs upto R7 260X/750 Ti, you are over estimating power requirements..
Reliability is a different thing as many have reported it is going kaput, but then again.. id still take it with a grain of salt as ive seen even seasonic PSU failing
