| At long last I have created a final build recipe for my new desktop PC 
| to run debian Linux. Replacing an ancient Dell PC running WIndows XP:

The i3-8100 is faster, cheaper, newer and has better graphics hardware
than the i5-6500.  Why not use it?  Or an even faster "8th gen"
processor?

Perhaps the motherboards are more expensive.  I haven't looked.  But they 
are likely to have a few more modern features.
