"Budget" pc build

Building my first pc wanted to know what people think of the build (case and gpu given to me unused by a friend) id be paying $550 of the $840 and id probably upgrade the gpu in the future 

ALSO wondering if its really worth going for 3200 RAM

 

AMD - Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor

MSI - B450M MORTAR Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard

Corsair - Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory

EVGA - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4 GB SC GAMING ACX 2.0 Video Card

 

Samsung - 860 Evo 500 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

The GPU is fine but I would definitely go for a better GPU in the future. Maybe a 1060 or a 1070. 

Other than that, your build is fine.

You should be buying the cheapest Ryzen 6 or 8 core CPUs since you can just overclock them. The R7 1700 is like $180 right now

THe ASrock Pro 4 and MSI tomahawk are the minimum motherboards you want to buy

And you should get a case that actually has airflow with a mesh front like a Fractal Focus G.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

are you going to use the stock amd cooler? it's alright (blows intel stock out of the water), but if you wanna overclock you might wanna spring for a cheap Corsair cooler from a while ago. 3200 MHz is great, but it's not really worth it, esp if you're going for budget. If you think you might want to upgrade in the future, you might want to spring for a 750W psu, but that will be perfect for what you have listed. Oh and I love the case.

Any of the $25 120mm air coolers will be fine for Ryzen, the Gammax 400 is $16 on amazon right now
