because when gpu got problem or drivers got problem..that when the hdmi on modo in use

won't la...
i try before so many pc hook to tv no such problem at all.

i am pretty sure the tv also has dvi sockets in the event something goes wrong but i really doubt so. the safeguards are nice to have but is it really necessary? if u really scared u can consider chaos's suggestion. that one seems ok.

aiyo. even my 5 year old cheapo mobo has HDMI port. Even if it doesnt, a converter costs what $10 or less?

bro...no one can quantify the experience of using a PC ie no one can tell you that if you buy parts worth $850 autocad will be slow, gaming will not be as shiok compared to a $1000 rig etc.

Of course, one will also make the case that with each extra dollar spent, there is diminishing returns on that dollar.

So the way i look at these budget/performance problems is like this: If your budget is unlimited, what is the level of experience you want? If you have a limited budget, then you just have to suck up any performance your budget allows. Thats life no?

If buying skylake i5, buy 6500(3.2GHz) instead of 6400(2.7Ghz) for just about $20 more....

Settle for DDR4 combo instead of DDR3.....

Ram need to change to curical ram.

well if u intend to add 2 extra hdd, dun bother to buy a dvd drive, as this mobo only have 4 SATA ports only, unless u dun mind been occupied.

for case can consider corsair Spec-01 for case.
