Intel i3-10100F / Intel i5-10400F
Corsair Vengeance 32GB (2x16GB) RAM
Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD
Dell E2420HS 1080p Monitor

May game but not intensive. Sometimes photo and video editing for personal use, not as profession. Will be having this PC for some 7+ years to come without any further upgrading. A little future proof. Which GPU to pair with i3-10100F or one to pair with i5-10400F? I thought 1650 Super would be good choice but it is exactly twice as much as my i3. I wonder should I spend twice for GPU than CPU as I don't game? So, if I choose i5 then it is same price as GPU. That looks ok for me. I don't mind either i3 or i5. I am okay with both. Suggestions please. I am in a dilemma.

If you don't game at all...
Intel i3-10100F / Intel i5-10400F
Corsair Vengeance 32GB (2x16GB) RAM

If you don't game at all, the onboard gpu on the i5 10400 will be sufficent.
If you just wanna have a computer that can run the occasional game, and do what you need it to do, then the i3/i5 and 1650 super are very good and will last for a long time.
