    Search for a Ryzen 1600 if at all possible.
    If you're gonna get a dedicated video card, don't spend the money on a cpu with integrated graphics that will limit the cpu performance.
    3200g is not worth it because it's the same cores as the ones in 2xxx series, you don't get that boost of performance that 3xxx series is praised for.
    2400g is only worth it if you're sure you're not gonna get a dedicated graphics card.
     
    2200g is what... 80-85$ .... a Ryzen 1600 can be bought for around 100$ .. 114$ on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B06XNRQHG4
    Here's pc partp picker link with lots of sellers: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mV98TW/amd-ryzen-5-1600-32ghz-6-core-processor-yd1600bbaebox
     
    and if you really don't want to spend more than 100$ on cpu, maybe go for Ryzen 1400, simply because it has 4 cores and 8 threads, and that helps a bit.
    There's an eBay listing for 80$ .. add a 10-20$ cooler and you're below the 100$ threshold: https://www.ebay.com/itm/AMD-YD1400BBAEBOX-Ryzen-5-1400-3200MHz-Quad-Core-Processor/362735556573?
    Here's a second listing with 10 or more processors available, for 82.5$ each (no cooler)
     
    If your budget is super tight... buy just one stick of memory now and run the computer for a month in single channel mode. Use the money for faster cpu.
    Then at your next paycheck, buy a 2nd stick of memory and you get a nice performance boost from running in dual channel.

    Halo007 reacted to wolfmcbeard in New PC vs Dell 7010   
    I run all games at 1080p (native res) and tweak settings from there, though most of my AAA library isn't all that new.

    NMS runs on a med-low mix though from what I understand that game has some performance issues in the first place even on consoles so I typically get 35 to 80 fps.

    Skyrim I do mixed high-med with med-high LOD settings and I get a buttery 60 with a drop of three or four frames once in a while though I can still get playable fps in most areas on ultra.

    BeamNG.Drive isn't all that new or even full release but it is very cpu heavy, I can usually spawn four cars at once, seven or more cars tank the fps though.

    Fallout 4 is ify, weird performance, sometimes it's a smooth 60 and then I go to Diamond City and see drops in the 10's

    Fallout 3 and NV default to ultra and I haven't seen any performance issues.

    ES Oblivion also defaults to ultra and is the same story as Fallout 3/NV.

    Black Mesa (Half-Life's unofficial remaster) can get intense in some spots but it's a Source engine game so it'll "run" on a lot of hardware though with tweaking, I've got most of the settings maxed except for dynamic shadows and water reflections both on med with and average fps of 50-60.

    Halo007 got a reaction from flibberdipper in New PC vs Dell 7010   
    i'm actually leaning for the dell 7010 system for 3 reasons :
    1- the GPU like you said even though its less powerful than gtx 1650 for example but it will get the job done at 768p and mid 1080p 
    2- most AAA games right now doesn't require more than 4 cores except for AC origins or BF V so i will be safe for at least 3-4 years.
    3- and at last i can install windows 7 as mush as i can because i HATE windows 10.
