    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? [I need a mouse and keyboard as well as monitor]

    I'd like to be able to get a motherboard that is somewhat futureproof. Futureproof in the sense that I can just update graphics cards as I go along, without having to tear the PC apart component by component.

    Thanks in advance.

    One thing to consider is the size of the case.
    A good long case would suit as graphics cards, especially at the higher end of the spectrum are getting longer and longer.
