Hi guys,

Can suggest me rig to replace my old Dell Inspiron? Recently got lucky draw that win me Samsung 19" monitor, so thinking of building budget rig instead of buying new laptops. Haven't build PC since 2005 so kind of lost with all the new hardwares now (esp. on GPU and mobo)

[Budget]
RM2500 max, lower is better but don't want to sacrifice performance.

[Purpose]
Work: Programming (Java & PHP), light Photoshop (use for icons/wireframe/little image manipulation), can handle multitasking very well (a lot of Chrome tabs - 20/30 is normal for me, also need to consider appserver & webserver). Maybe a bit virtualization (Oracle VirtualBox + Vagrant settings), but I might dual-boot with Linux.

Light gaming: Mostly played old games (Sim City 4, old Diablo 2, Dungeon Siege 2, Civilization, Football Manager.. I'm more into RPG/strategy). Maybe wanted to try new games e.g. Diablo 3/Starcraft 2/Dota 2/Watch Dog, but not priority. Much prefer not online games now that I'm married (although I do miss the good ol times of playing RO and Dota 1 v5/v6 sometimes )

[Hardware existing/reuse]
Monitor - got Samsung 19" (only 1366x768), keyboard & mouse.

[Games/Softwares used frequently]
Softwares: Netbeans, IntelliJ, PhpStorm, Photoshop, Tomcat/Glassfish/Apache stuffs, VirtualBox and Vagrant, dual-boot Windows/Linux.
Games: see above. Not a heavy gamer.

[Personal preferences]
- Small form factor if possible (eyeing for CM Elite 130 - need that USB3!)
- If possible Mobo include Wifi (my Unifi is installed at ruang tamu, don't want to pull LAN cable).
- Not planning to OC at all. Thinking either Xeon/i7 4790, but can't decide which. Not sure should go with just integrated GPU or is it worth it to get a graphic card...
- 8GB RAM, can still tolerate no SSD (maybe future upgrade).

Question:
1) Do I still need CPU cooler for heavy workload? Or stock cooler still okay? Worried that running too much stuff at one time will get too much CPU heat then blow my mobo

2) B85 vs H97 motherboard; apart from CPU support, what's the advantage of getting H97? Is B85 not future-proof?

3) Can suggest future upgrade? Which one first? SSD/RAM? Maybe not GPU (if already suggested) since I'm not playing newest game (but I might add another monitor for 1 vertical / 1 horizontal settings).

Thanks sifu!
