Why ask only for a Mobo and Processor?
Most of the money in gaming PCs goes into the GPU
and getting a Mobo usualy depends on what you intend to put on it
So i will try to help you if you tell me more
Ill look into that bundle of yours

Bundle looks good, but you still need a Graphics Card.
I dont recommend playing on the built in graphics, it won't get you very far.

that one is gonna fall off REALLY quick (as far as new games go, it's outdated, but you can stick with it for existing games)

the bundle is very good if it fits your budget, just make sure it fits inside the case, and your PSU has a high enough wattage and quality (at least 600 Watts and 80 plus bronze recommended) and all the other stuffs (hard drive yada yada)
