Hi, I am upgrading my cpu and the budget is little low, so I have made the list of the components needed, please do guide me in choosing the right one.

Processor - intel i5 9400F

Gpu - Zotac Geforce 1050ti

Ram - corsair vengeance 8gb

PSU - corsair vs450W

cabinet - corsair spec01

motherboard I am confused a bit, please do guide me, thank you.

The r53600 seems to be the better buy these days.  It's gaming and productivity performance is worth the extra 40-50 you'll spend, at least in my opinion. 

You'll need a x470/570 with 3rd gen ryzen bios updated from the factory to make it work.

b450 boards are great for 3600, you don't need x470/570 unless you actually need the extra things they bring (most users don't). most people here recommend the msi b450 tomahawk max

Forgot this board comes with the BIOS updated for third gen or the flashback button to allow update with no CPU installed.

I agree, this is a good board for a 3600.

I personally have a b350, but you have to have an older CPU to upgrade the bios to get that to work.  The B450 you do not.

Guys I really appreciate all your replies but unfortunately right now I can't afford to the ones your suggesting.

I choose intel i5 along with 1050ti thinking about the budget which both together would cost me 323$ (converted from INR) and the motherboard I chose was asus prime a320mk which costs around 59$

So, please suggest me within these two overall cost, hope there are some

there is also the ASrock B450m AC. 

 

and at last the DS3H AC which i suggest avoiding due to QC issues.

would up the cost up to a B450m Pro4 or AC. both being very cheap for what they offer.

you can literally replace the rx570 with the 1050ti in the same build. nothing else needs to change. but the rx570 is better, for roughly the same price.

Ryzen has closed the gap if not surpassed Intel, even if Intel is faster the gap is so small that you wouldn't notice it anyway
