pcPartPicker says that the motherboard may not be compatible out of the box

I highly recommend a B450 motherboard instead of A320 because it will give support for 5th gen Ryzen in the future. If you want guaranteed support, one of the MAX motherboards from MSI is updated for third gen. A520 is also guaranteed to support and will support fast ram, which is important for ryzen performance.

 

Not sure how much fresh stock is in Jordan in terms of motherboards but every B450 motherboard made after a certain date is updated for ryzen, while A320 motherboards only get it on a Beta BIOS so it's unlikel that you'll but an A320 motherboard that's compatible with ryzen.

Budget (including currency): 550 JOD -> 688USD

Country: Jordan

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Latest AAA games

Other details:  Are there any incompatible components? pcPartPicker says that the motherboard may not be compatible out of the box

CPU: ryzen 3 3100

GPU: gtx 1650 super

ram: 2x 4GB 2666mhz

motherboard: asus prime a320M-C R2.0

PSU: coolermaster MWE white 450W

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

For a new system i think you should stay away from a A320.

If you can, get a A520, it will support newer cpu.

Are prices in Jordan low enough that you can get a Ryzen 3100 and a 1650 Super on that budget? You may be stuck with an i3 9100F and an RX 570 (which, to be fair, will perform nearly as well).

 

And yeah, if you're getting a Ryzen chip, go A520 or B450, whichever's cheaper.

 

Keep in mind you'll wanna get 2x8GB if you can, or 1x8 if you can't afford it. 2x4 blocks your upgrade path since most cheap boards only have 2 ram slots.

As everyone else mentioned pls stay away from A320 it wont get next gen support only 500 series and 400 series boards will get ryzen 5th support....so consider a A520 or b450(if u want overclocking) the ram is a little slow try to get the fastest ram available in your budget. also if you wish to run AAA games tht 8 gb wont be enough and you will have to upgrade to 16 gb soon.. you havent mentioned any storage options but get a sata ssd for your OS and a hard drive coz latest games are pretty big, choose your case wisely and you also shouldnt be looking for anything rgb(sorry bro) for your budget to get the best performance 

check if you can find a 550w psu it will be more future proof but the one u chose is enough to getting u up and running
