Help for a configuration

[UwuweweweOssas]

I need a help for a configration, i can't choose:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600x

GPU: XFX Radeon RX 570 4GB / Manli GTX 1650 4 GB

Motherboard: Asrock B450M Pro4 / Asrock AB350 Pro4

PSU: Corsair TX 550M

Case: Aerocool Aero 500

RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport (1x8 GB)

SSD: Crucial BX500 120 GB (for Windows)

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1 TB 2.5 (for data)

Monitor: Acer NITRO QG1 QG241Y

 

I'm uncertain about the GPU, the Motherboard, the RAM and the Monitor. For the GPU, which one is more powerful? I found them with a difference of €2.

 

About the Motherboard, what's the difference? The first one is a microATX and has the chipset B450, the second one is an ATX and has the chipset B350. Which one is better?

 

For the RAM, i want to replace it because it's too expensive, there's something better even with a frequence of 2400 Mhz? Also, if i have a RAM with a low frequence, even 2100 Mhz, can i increase the frequence it to the maximum, like 3200 Mhz, in the BIOS?

 

For the monitor, i'm not an expert, i found this at abut €110, it has a latency of 1ms and has AMD Free-Sync, it's good enough for photo editing, video editing and videogame or there's something better? Always something that's about €100.

For the GPU, the RX 570 is faster than the 1650

No comment on the motherboard, I would say B450M but its a micro atx

For ram, I would go with 2x8 if you are doing ryzen but if you insist on going with 8gb do a 2x4 kit for dual channel. At minimum go with 3200mhz kit as higher speeds are good for ryzen.

I personally can't find the monitor on newegg or amazon but i think i found it on there site, its a decent-ish price for 75hz 1ms, it will pair good with the RX570 as well for free sync

Ok, so the GPU is RX570. Why a microATX is worst than ATX? The difference is only that's smaller, or there's something else?

For the RAM, i wanted to take 16GB but that's really too expensive, so I was going to take these now and ugrade to 16GB in the future. So i can't increase the RAM speed into the BIOS?

The monitor is like you said, i'll take it.

rx570, b450, 2 ram sticks at 3000/3200, monitor looks good

microATX is just worse for overclocking if you are into that, 16gb is only around $90 if thats too expensive and you know you are going to get the microatx with 2 dim slots, go with single channel then as you will get duel channel when you upgrade. You can overclock ram but you would need a decent heatsink on it and im not sure about how overclocking ram goes and how far you can go with it

Ok thank you, i'm not interested in overlocking, so the B450M Pro 4 will be fine. The heatsink i will use is the one that is included with the CPU, i think it's enough (i don't want to overlock the RAM if it isn't necessary, i just want to active the XMP in the BIOS if it's possible)
