RadCard

some mobo allows server and desktop memory to use together, but most of the time you can't

thank you for your help Damascus :]

Just checked the website, you only get that combo on $100+ CPU's, meaning you can get an i3 for the same price as the g4560.  I recommend you wait for H310 and i3 8100 to be available and get them.

looks to be a good deal, seems like most places at least online have it for more than $60, though i think microcenter has a combo deal or something for motherboard and CPU for a certain amount off, never been to microcenter myself. just what i have heard

where do you normally like to buy from? newegg? amazon?

Yeah, it's not bad.  You can combo it with this guy for under $100 (though you need DDR4)

Gigabyte boards are really high quality. i have one that's more than 10 years old, and still works.
 
don't know about msi boards though

Go with an MSI pro-vd board
Or some H110M motherboard (like from gigabyte)
 
 

AFAIK GT 1030 doesn't suport 4k netflix, some driver limitation along with hardware encoding being disabled as well.
maybe they changed it lately, i don't know.

If you are going to use it in a HTPC for viewing Netflix in 4K I would recommend the 1030.

A more polished turd is still a turd. Both cards do 2D and video playback fine, and both cards can barely do any gaming. No point spending even a dollar more.
 
Besides, you can buy something like a Radeon 4450 for example on eBay for 8-10$, maybe even less... that's also good enough for Windows, browsing and watching movies... and some super basic gaming.
 
Here's an example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Ref-ATI-Radeon-HD4450-512MB-PCI-E-1x-DVI-1x-DisplayPort-Video-Card-C7MG0/182280983263
 
Or you can buy a lot of 20 Radeon 6350 for 115$ (<6$ a piece) and some DMS-59 adapter cables for ~3.5$ a piece then sell 19 cards for 10-12$ a piece : https://www.ebay.com/itm/LOT-OF-20-AMD-ATI-Radeon-HD6350-HD-6350-512MB-PCI-e-x16-DMS-59-Video-Cards-GPU/401206301848
 
 

for a dollar more i would get this
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137199
 
192 cuda cores vs just 16 !!
 
and a new one for $5 more https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127931

That's a okay price on the card. But if it is not gaming, what do you need the videocards for?
Video editing? 3D rendering?

Eh, heres one new for 69.99

If you don't intend to use it for gaming, buy something cheaper
 
A GT210 card is 30$ and some are passively cooled and they're old enough to have vga connectors in case you stumble upon an older lcd monitor with VGA only inputs.
Here's an example: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125402&ignorebbr=1
 

What particular part? The chipset? Ethernet drivers?
Here's the link to the drivers site. You just Google the model. http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/optiplex-9010/drivers

What @Jamiec1130 said. Dell is fantastic with driver support, which is one of the many reasons that I believe there's no better base for your cheapo gaming PC needs than an off-lease Optiplex.

Hyper X cloud II
agreed! i have one and it is an amazing headset and its super comfortable for long all night gaming sessions.

Not a problem, I have been using horse-hair paint brushes just for that job for years and don't see any reason to stop any time soon.  My vote is to go ahead and use the brush.
 

H61, b65, z68, b75, z75, p67, h77 and z77, not to mention business grade q series boards. 

H61, H77/Z77, Z68 i think

I'd personally go with an RX 560 instead of a 950.
 
Although a 4GB variant is preferable.

Try maybe finding a used GTX 680/770, or R9 280/280X or something?
used high-end older cards are better than new low-end cards.

in other words:
take the one that comes in a color you like....
