Comparison

Hello, I am thinking about buying a computer, and I want to choose the best option. In other sections, some of you may have seen that I asked which motherboard to choose, etc.
Here are 2 computers that one is from the MOdular store, and the other is from Lifeinformatica:

Life informatica:
cpu:i5 3570 3,40ghz 6mb 4nucleos
HDD: WD 1TB SATA 3
RAM: 8GB DDR3 1600 Mhz HyperX
MotherBoard:GIGABYTE B75M-D3H(USB 3.0)
Graphics: Asus Nvidia Geforce gt610 1GB DDR3
Power supply: This is integrated with the case, I do not have more data about the W
Network: 10/100/1000

MODULAR:

cpu:i3 3220 3.3Ghz 3MB s1155
Mother: gigabyte H77 -DS3H S 1155/DDr3
RAM: DIMM 8 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz Kingston
HDD: 500 GB SATA 7200 RPM SEAGATE
Graphics: MSI NVIDIA GTX650 1 GB GDDR5
Power supply: ATX 600W WIRETEC.

The computer from modular is customized, it is made for gaming, and in the future to improve the hard drive etc.
What matters most to me is the motherboard, to know which one would be good for me to improve the pc in the future. I already know that the cpu from modular is not that good, but with a ddr5 graphics card maybe it compensates in games.

which one do you recommend more?

Thanks

Personally, I don't recommend buying a PC with the intention of upgrading it in the future.
A machine that is bought for gaming depreciates by prolonging its retirement, so it would be better if none of the components would be useful for the next upgrade.
To start with, I'll tell you that it's a mistake to put a single hard drive: it's better to mount two smaller ones (with less capacity) than one big one. The team below is today's bread and tomorrow's hunger, and the one above is only a little better, and it must be kept in mind that a team works better if the performance of its components is balanced: a powerful micro with a cool graphics card is the same as a cool micro with a powerful graphics card. In that range, whether they are DDR3 or 5 is not noticeable enough to pay the difference, and I warn you that you will have dissipation problems.
Likewise, the amount of RAM is quite fair (scarce) for an average configuration.
Having said all this, I admit that I don't know your budget and that you have other options in your area, so I would recommend the one above, with double the RAM, another hard drive and the graphics card from the one below.
Regards.

Budget is the highest I can aspire to have xD
The thing about prolonging retirement, precisely because of that I care a lot about the motherboard, from there I can improve the pc. I suppose I will combine the 2 to have a more balanced pc. What I would like you to tell me is which board is better, and if it holds up well and if it is robust.

I know I am going a bit against what you say, but the budget is low, about the heat, I will try to put better thermal paste and ventilate it well. The ram is not a problem, you buy more cards and ale.

From personal experience, Gigabyte is one of the most robust against voltage problems, from there, it's better to focus on the socket, which determines which processors are compatible.

GIGABYTE - Motherboards - Socket 1155 - Chipset H77 - GA-H77-D3H (Rev. 1.0) - Specifications

So, what we have is that the one at the bottom is missing a processor, while the one at the top is struggling with having a µATX motherboard, where the graphics card will be quite tight if we have any PCI devices.
If we put the i5 micro in the one at the bottom, it will be a decent computer.;D
At this point, check if it wouldn't be cheaper to buy parts; in this same subforum, configurations have been presented that are very economical.

Well, from what I understand, if later on, I install a better card in the first configuration, it will be bad.
On the other hand, in the second one, just by changing the processor, it would already be good, right?
Regarding what you say about the i3 being a bad processor, I tell you that with another friend's computer, I have played BF3, mechwarriors online, KSP, Crysis 2, World of tanks etc with a GT 630 GPU (nothing out of this world) and with 4 GB.

That's why it surprises me that you think an i3 Cpu is bad

[whoololon]

To me, an i3 seems good or bad depending on what it's compared to.

i3 3220= 2 cores, clock speed 3.3 GHz
i5 3570= 4 cores, clock speed 3.4 to 3.8 GHz

I at least see it more than clear.

Regarding the games you mention, I would play them perfectly... but keep in mind that these are games that have already been released. And we already know that every year new titles come out that require more and more resources, so we're going to spend the money, at least that it lasts about three years without having to put money into it and without having to lower resolution and detail to the minimum.

In summary, to the question of which of the two configurations has the best motherboard for future upgrades, my answer is the GA H77-DS3H S.

Best regards.

I know, but I can't afford to pay for an i5 right now. The first one you told me has it, but from what you've told me, it's pretty limited

I'll keep looking, thanks man
