Hello guys I am from pakistan 

I bought dell optiplex 7010 pc 

Like 4 months ago 

Specs 

I7 3770 

Mobo dell 0yxt71

16gb ddr3 1666mhz

600 watt thermal take tier2

Rx 470 sapphire nitro plus 4gb 

1 TB n 230gb hdd

After it I changed my case and did research on front io and everything worked 

Now I have like money rs 5000 to 6000 thousands 

I want to know which thing should I buy 

Motherboard or monitor 

Performance is not issue for now

Pros of motherboard 

I will get vast amount of customization, settings and ui bios

 

And get free of front io connection things

 

Pros of monitor 

I have big sized led and more resolution and can oc it

 

I want to know which thing should I buy 

What you guys think 

 

Right now I have 1366x768 

19inch led monitor

 

Motherboad I have only 3 satas can't use 3rd one cuz of gpu size and no bios settings and cpu fan settings 

So right now can't upgrade to ssd

3 sata ports are enough, 1ssd + 1hdd + 1optical drive ( which you don't really need )

 

Plus there are angled sata cables that maybe help you squeeze the cable under the card. Need photos

 

Also you didn't need to change the case since this is just a budget PC, waste of money the original case is pretty enough

No no I bought the case thats not a case in this thing 

The sapphire card is big and I have 2 angled sata cable 

Problem is all 3 satas are in line form so all are under gpu also close so the cables angle is covered the 3rd sata port which is the center one so that why
