I'm building a CustoMac mATX based on the recommended buyer's guide here. However, I made a mistake and bought the Z170MX Gaming 5 rather than the newer Z270MX version.
I was wondering if I should bother trying to return the MOBO that I...

First time builder. I'm getting ready to build the vanilla CustomMac mATX as outlined in the February Buyer's Guide. I'm not going to be gaming with this machine or doing video editing; could I get away with a lesser graphics card than the EVGA GTX 960 Super Clocked? Like maybe the EVGA GT 740...
