Budget (including currency):$1000 

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortinite GTA 5 Cold War

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): 

Advise. My 13yr old wants to build a Gaming PC and do his home work. I know I want to make it decent so we don't have to do a ton of upgrades later. With the GPU's costing as much as they are I was thing of using a AsRock B550 Steel Legend motherboard and a Ryzen 5 5600G. At least until the GPU's come down to reality. Thank you for any input.

Here is a reasonable list.

5700G, 2x8GB RAM at 3600 CL16 speeds, HDD, SSD and everything you need.

P.S. I choose case, fans and colors as my taste, So you can change those, Go cheaper if u wanted or even go non RGB variant to save good amount of money, But I assumed because of motherboard option, you wanted white build... 😄 I can adjust it as you want so tell me.
