first pc build I'm building my first PC ever so I need some help please (spoiler: I clearly messed up)

[Swarnava]

So I'm Swarnava Majumder from India, an a student of Animation . Nice to meet everyone here . So for last 3 years I have lived a life without any pc or even laptop (i know it sounds crazy but it is true) but now since I've got admitted in Animation my subject demands a pc so my parents agreed to get me one and as a tech enthusiast I decided to build a pc , a Ryzen build . You may ask why ryzen build : because its more bank for buck . Since i had streaming in my head for quite a while now i decided to go with a 6 core processor ryzen 5 1600 (not 2600 because I'm in a super tight budget of Rs.45,000=$400approx including all peripherals ). I already did research and bought the powersupply and RAM and monitor:

Powersupply : Corsair VS 550 (from Amazon)

Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR4 3000MHz (also amazon and 3000MHz since ryzen works better with faster memory) . 

Monitor: HP 22es (from Amazon in an awesome deal)

Before I say any further I must say that I will buy a graphics card but not now , next year . But I came to know that ryzen 5 1600 cant run without a dedicated gpu so I got upset and thought of settling with ryzen 5 2400g . But I saw that core i5 8400 has an integrated gpu and also 6cores (need 6 cores for streaming) so after a lot of cost cutting from case , motherboard and ssd I saw i can just afford i5 8400 with some compromise on other areas . 

SO NOW MY QUESTION IS : Does Intel core i5 8400 support a 3000MHz RAM on a Gigabyte H310M H motherboard ?

 

And thank you soo much to the LTT community, you guys are awesome and also special thanks to Linus for teaching me how to build a pc and being a guru through out my process . Much love from India .

You can get lower speed RAM for Intel, they are not as sensitive to high RAM speed as AMD Ryzen. 

 

Gigabyte H310M-H only supports up to 2666MHz

 

EDIT: You can just stick a 3000MHz on it, but it will only run at 2666MHz since thats the limit of the motherboard.

Reading from what the Gigabyte website says: 

 

1. Support for DDR4 2666/2400/2133 MHz memory modules

You can get basically ANY GPU to run in that thing, so you can have output.  Hell, my server runs a Ryzen 5 1600 and a 8800GTS from a decade or more ago.

 

Grab something cheap off Ebay or used, you only need it to have an output.

 

Btw, you can get by with a Ryzen 2200G too, it has integrated graphics. You don't HAVE to stream, you know.

So that means it will run .  Please say yes ... I would be so grateful to you for the rest of my life if tgats true . Please say yes

Just offering options is all.

 

If all those people who are going to watch your streams make it worth it, go for it.

Does that mean the 3000MHz RAM won't even run on the motherboard ?

It will, but not to its full 3000MHz. 

The motherboard's limit is 2666MHz so that the highest your RAM will run at.

If you want to have your ram running at 3000mhz your going to have to get a z series chipset and not the lower priced b series. At that point its going to be expensive (dont know the cost of z series boards in india.) and I would just let it run at 2666mhz.

Yeah thats my question will the 3000MHz RAM run at 2666MHz in H310M H motherboard . I'm fine with it if it runs at 2666 MHz speed . But will it run ?

Yes, it will run, and it will run at 2666MHz.

Thanks for helping

What animation software are you using? Plenty of popular software (Maya, SoftImage, 3DSMax, etc.) will likely favor the multicore performance of AMD in any case.
