I want to upgrade my PC after a motherboard failure. My socket-775 motherboard died, and thus I decided to buy a new one, with another socket.
My motherboard of choice is a GIGABYTE H81M-DS2 (socket 1150).
Since my old CPU and RAM are not fit for that motherboard, I will do the following upgrades too:
CPU
From: Intel Core2 Duo E8500 3.16 GHz
To: Intel Pentium G3260 3.30 GHz (I can't figure out if it has a fan or not, so please help me with this)
RAM
From: 2x2 GB 1333 MHz DDR2 (I can't access it so I don't know the manufacturer)
To: Corsair CMV4GX3M1A1600C11 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
All of this will cost 130 euros (144 dollars) in total. Aside from the assessment, can I find those items somewhere for a better price?
Other recommendations are welcome, but I'd really prefer it if they didn't surpass the 130 euro mark.
