 So i went to my closest computer store and they told me that a i7-4790 was recommened as they said it was difficult to overclock. 

 

Also, would it be cheaper(and better) to get a motherboard with inbuilt wifi or with a usb dongle/pci card.

 

Also, recommened mobo's or cases. I have no clue which case i want. I want one optimized for cooling.

 

Thanks.

Tell us:

  1. What's your budget
  2. What do you want to accomplish with your PC
  3. What parts do you already have

4790k for overclocking. Do you need to OC? 99% of people don't.

 

Check out www.pcpartpicker.com and browse newegg for cases.

Use a PCI card for wifi.
