I3/960 will be better for gaming. Any H110/B150/H170 mobo will work, though preferably from Asus or Gigabyte. And this power supply http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151094&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

I would say the 13 6100 / 960 is a better choice for gaming. and psu and motherboard would be as follows.

Thanks a lot.... Sorry for downrating ur comment earlier.... Just did it by mistake... Btw which is better value fir money gtx 960 or gtx 950 superclocked

I think that the 960's are better value than the 950's. Unless you can find a 950 for under $120, the 960 is the way to go.
