Thx for the input, I guess I will pick V550 just to be sure.

What do you think of these PSU choices? Antec 550W Neo Eco 550M (tier 3) $60 Antec 550W EAG550 PRO (tier 3) $80 Seasonic 550W G-550 (tier 2) $72 CoolerMaster 550W V550 (tier 1) $72

I dont know for sure but it seems that some people already got Ryzen 5, unless they are somehow faking it. Maybe they got it from pre-order or AMD gave it away for preview.

Thx for the reply, though what you mean by "better"? It would seem that 550W is enough even for overclocking. Also for Ryzen 5 review, there have been plenty on Youtube.

Hey guys this is my very first build, pls share your opinions on it. Bought: GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 FTW+ GAMING 6G Storage: TOSHIBA 1TB 7200 32M SATA3 Monitor: ASUS VG278HV 27inch 144Hz Pending: CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 $220 Motherboard: MSI B350M MORTAR（AMD B350/Socket AM4） $106 RAM: ADATA XPG DDR4 3200 8G $77 SSD: TOSHIBA A100 240G SATA3 $86 Powersupply: CoolerMaster 550W GX550 (80PLUS Bronze) $58 Powersupply: CoolerMaster 550W V550 (tier 1) $72 Case: CoolerMaster K282(mid-tower, comes with a front-mounted fan) $33 FAN: CoolerMaster PWM LED $6 1. Budget & Locationo I'm mostly concerned about the ram, heard rumors about Ryzen having issue with high frequency ram, should I get some like 2400MHz or 3000MHz instead? I'm in China so all the dollar prices are conversed from RMB, and we don't yet have Gskill Flare on sale. Also if you have any suggestions on better budget planning for certain parts, pls let me know. 2. Aim & 3. Monitors Pure 1080P gaming on a single monitor, the planned rig would likely to stay with me for 2 years(possibly slamming an additional 8G ram). I would like to slightly overclock the CPU and GPU(like a 10% boost). Crisis 3, Arma 3, Fallout 4(with heavy mod usage), ME Andromeda, Escape from Tarkov, etc.
