intel G3258 VS. i3-4360

Solution


Ye its a cheap and decent choice.
And yes you can use this mobo for an 5th generation intel, even an I7-5930k* with 500$.

( Maybe the next I7-4930k )


Thanks. What Z97 MOBO do you recommend? microcenter is running a combo deal with this CPU along with MSI Z97 pc mate. Can I use this board in the future using i5 or maybe i7? Thanks again.
 


That microcentre deal is a bargain, and yes that mobo can be used with an i5 or i7 later on.

Thank you..
 


You are thinking of Ivy Bridge E and Haswell E those are LGA2011 and LGA2011-3 boards respectively. And they aren't going to be compatible with each other. Haswell E will be running DDR4.

Best you could put in an LGA1150 board right now is the Devil's Canyon i7-4790k, and whatever model they come out with for Broadwell.
 


Yes, that's plan for now to use a 1150 board.
