Cannot find a legit review. I can only find reviews of G series 550W 80PLUS GOLD from 2012.  And isn't this old, too?

The Seasonic G and S12G are the same platform internally - the difference being modularity. The Seasonic G is a perfectly viable option, and I have no problem using with any modern day rig. It's a vastly superior, modern solution than the Seasonic S12II-B you was looking at.

Only their low end and mid range ones are bad/mediocre
V and VSM are solid units as well as MasterWatt Maker (but extremely overpriced)

there will be no problem with Seasonic S12G-550 for Ryzen. Right? It's perfect or what?

Yes it's good enough
If you want perfect then go for tier 1 PSU

If you don't have much money to spend, Seasonic S12II or CM new GX storm
Otherwise, S12G (or better but more expensive PSU)

I don't get this. Just tell me what is better: S12II or S12G? I am getting both for almost the same price.

Seasonic S12G 550W

 

All set?

 

I am resorting to 2133HZ memory cz I cannot find a SINGLE compatible RAM with my motherboard. I don't want to go with MSI Tomahawk cause MSI has poor after sale service and RMA.

Looks good, price for each parts?

 

2666MHz RAM should be compatible.

Remember to OC the RAM

 

MSI has lower quality mobos IMO

It went kaput within few months of usage.

 

Nope. 12400 is the cheapest I am getting. Any reason?
