Ive been posting on here for a while now weighing up my options about what i should put in my new pc, but with the launch of Ryzen 5 i thought i would make a new post. My budget is £600GBP, i dont have much room outside of that budget. I want to play things like Battlegrounds, H1Z1, Destiny 2 and CSGO. Graphics arent important to me as much as performance, but if i can have both then thats great. Peripherals and OS arent needed. All help is welcome :)

Do you need a monitor?

 

Also, why Ryzen 5 when the G4560 is better value and more in line with your budget?

Nope :) 

 

I would just rather have something that lasts longer

i'd just get an i5 for that price if you are just gaming, performs similar in gaming with ryzen 5 but cheaper with a mobo. you can use the money saved on other components.

NO. That is not what I said. Stop putting words in my mouth.

The G4560 in isolation. Stop turning specific arguments into blanket statements, or misrepresenting someone's opinion in general.

it's about 6 months or so since the bioses were released back in october 2016, they probably should come with them already. you can ask novatech if the mobo comes with the bios that supports kabylake/manufacture date(november and later), or find a computer store that can flash the bios for you if it doesn't work.

Just ask for the manufacturing date of the boards in stock. If it's after November 2016, it'll have the updated BIOS. Maybe December for more sluggish companies, although I'm yet to be informed about any. Biostar, perhaps.

If you pair 1600 with a rx480 or 470 That will be a pretty decent machine. Because let's face it nobody uses a PC just for gaming because you can do so much more with a PC other than gaming.

All good, but please be careful. I do not start flame wars and would hate to be a source of one.

Ryzen CPUs close the gap with competing Intel CPUs when paired with DDR4 3200 memory or higher (MindBlank Tech managed to test with 3600). Ryzen 5 absolutely creams the i5 range for value, especially when paired with fast RAM.

I'm giving you an Intel buildc based on your games choice, because I bet you want to see that 300fps number while playing CS:GO even though I suspect it doesn't do anything ;)
