I am going to build my first pc, and as im not too sure how it's going to go, can I use my motherboard to connect to a monitor without a graphic card? I do apologise about my ignorance

is pc cases with inbuilt PSU bad?

Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 is this a better option to my previous choice?

I'm probably not going to be running any game on 4k or have a 4k monitor so I guess I'll stick with the 2gb 270. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think adobe doesn't use much of the gpu... or maybe I interpreted a forum answer incorrectly.

With the 270, there isn't the 4gb version, it's only 2gb would that make a difference to my editing or my gaming? I'm thinking of a Seasonic PSU maybe?

I'm planning to make a video/photo editing pc using Adobe After effects, Photoshop and Lightroom and I need to upgrade my prehistoric PC. I was wondering if I should get the i7 4770 or AMD FX8350. To be honest I don't want to pay allot ( £600 ) I'm going to do some gaming on it but not as...

I would want to play metro: last light medium settings and COD on high. I'm willing to spend 180pounds.

Sorry for my ignorance but what makes a good graphics card? I've, pretty much, based it on the gb's. I have been told that this isn't the best way of choosing a GPU

Thanks a ton, you have helped allot. I think I'm going to stick with my motherboard as the difference between my board and the h87 is only 7pounds at the shop so I'm not losing out on much. I'm going to go with the psu that you sent link of, the reviews of the Seasonic is better than the one I...
