Gotcha! So maybe add the wifi and case to my build and leave the rest alone.

With that being said, is that i3 he suggested a better purchase than my i5? He said graphically it's superior?

I read something where someone was saying that with a large monitor like my 27", a graphics card was a good idea so that frame rate issues were kept to a minimum. Would you suggest pairing a graphics card with either the i3 or the i5? Or neither?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!
