Ryzen 5 3600 with old GT610 graphics to start new buld until GPU's are restocked

[martyn ni]

Budget (including currency): not applicable yet - sterling

Country: Northern Ireland

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: driving games, editing music files 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

It has been 15 years since i last did a PC build, its amazing now what has happened since.

So i am creating a shopping basket, R5 3600 + gigabyte B550 aorus pro v2 + m.2 SSD PCIE4 + 3200mhz 16GB 

the mobo choice and M.2SSD PCIE4 have driven my budget upwards and with the shortage of mid range GPU i dont wants to buy [ waste money ] on  a cheap GPU just to build the PC.

I do have a GT 610 lying around but i understand it had driver issues for WIN 10.

the Question is will this GT 610 allow the mobo to get my build up and running on brand new build to aloow me to do a fresh new windows 10 install etc.

 

thanks in advance

if windows basic display driver will work with the card and you just need it to get and output I don't see why not. Worst case senario you buy a gt 710 or some other cheapo card for 10$ (Im in US so whatever cheap cards go for around you) to get the system up and running.

Okay, firstly you can have a gen 3 m.2, you probably don't need a gen 4 unless, idk you're transferring large files all day. I'm not experienced to answer your other question, but I could tell you another way around this problem would be to use an intel processor ranging from 10400-11500 whatever suits your needs, and relying on the iGPU till things get normal.

I'm guessing that since "editing music files" is listed in the original post, fast Data transfer speed is actually a priority, so using a ryzen CPU on B550 or Intel 11th gen CPU on B560 are the economic options.

Hello to all who have replied so far, thanks

hello SignatureSigner, the cheapest GPU in the uk as per a new GT 710 is approx $40+ [ rip off ] but when i fire up the new build for the very first time, no windows 10 will be present, so i wonder will my old GT610 at least give me a display at low res to get me going.
