Build configuration for Core i5 desktop.
Be aware that not all LGA 1151 boards can run the 9400. You’ll need a 300 series chipset to make Coffee Lake function properly. For the 3600 and B450 options, you’ll gain more upgrade potential, performance, and gaming power, but the 9400 will still work just fine at this time. Also, getting the P106-100 to operate smoothly will be quite challenging since it’s a mining card; unless it’s your sole choice for the GPU, consider another option.
The H310M functions properly. You can obtain the driver version 417.22, edit the registry to remove the AdapterType key, and it should operate smoothly.
At this stage, the release time makes it less ideal, though it's at least functional.
Consider your needs and budget. The 3200g model is cheaper but may limit cooling options, while the 3400g offers better performance and a higher price tag. You're likely to use a 240mm AIO cooler with the 3200g, and you might want to upgrade later. Decide based on your priorities.
You can get it for the cost of 3200g plus an AIO cooler, and you'll have a 3600 that's significantly better.
In my country, a 3200g and an aio cooler would cost around 500-600, whereas the 3600 model would be 800, which goes beyond my budget.
