Building First PC

[BobThePCMaker]

Hi,

 

I've never built a PC before but its something I want to start doing. So far I've picked some parts and have an idea of how to assemble them, but I just wanted to double check some things.

 

1) Are all these parts compatible

 

2) Am I missing anything

 

3) Any tips

 

Thanks!

A Ryzen 3 will go well with a RX 560

 

Its a good system for under 400 bucks.

[SupaKomputa]

yes it will work.

any reason picking the 2200g?

2400g already cheap. and there will be 3400g soon.

A Ryzen 3 and no video card ?  Grab a 1050Ti or a used RX 560 to match your cpu and not cause a crazy bottleneck.

Hey, thanks. yeah the Ryzen comes with Radeon Vega 8 graphics, is that enough? I was thinking I might need a card aswell. Its a mid range pc im going for

The key is picking a video card that goes well with the CPU.  I wouldn't get anything higher then a AMD RX 560 and with nVidia I wouldn't go higher then a 1050Ti.  But also depends on what games you play.  CS:GO will be really butter smooth and fast where as a modern AAA titles will get taxed.

Plus prices of the CPU you picked will fall after tomorrow if you insist on that CPU. But 3400g will be a good price on release.

Ah okay, so your saying every things fine, I just could upgrade the CPU, and ill look into that  but also I should get a graphics card, 1050Ti?

[SupaKomputa]

no... 1050ti is dead.

get a used rx570.

Pcpartpicker.com is the best way to share a parts list, replace the one in the OP with a PCpp list permalink. It has the lowest pricing available from a lot of retailers as well.

Sorry Im new to this, but do I actually need a graphics card if the CPU has Vega 8 graphics already, could I run games well without an extra graphics card?

[SupaKomputa]

with new RX570 at 100ish, i really can't recommend any other budget gpu, it's just too good.

waiting for vega 56 to dip below 200...

running them well? not really, the Vega 8 solution is for 720 medium basically. If you get an Rx 470 or 570 from ebay, it's miles better.

yeah you're right. but if you wanna game with a proper fps in 1080 get a gpu.

otherwise if you're content with 720p gaming, it's playable enough.

Also, if you'd like to save even more

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/dQgzK8/asrock-b450m-pro4-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-b450m-pro4

This motherboard more than gets the job done. Plenty of power phases with a proper heat sink, and very affordable.

what's the problem with that? intel cpu have gpu too...

[Bitter]

How long does OP intend to use the computer before upgrading? 8GB of 2400 is a meh choice for Ryzen, 3200 is fairly inexpensive too and would be a big upgrade in performance as well.

Thats what im wondering, does it work fine without the external gpu? can I still comfortably get 720p 60fps etc etc with this build

[SupaKomputa]

why don't you just try if first without the GPU.

yes it will work with an extra gpu, you can get the gpu anytime.
