AMD Ryzen 5 Build

I've always wanted to upgrade to Ryzen since it came out. Im on a limited budget though. 

Would a simple AsRock B350 PRO4 Mobo with 8GB of ddr4 and a Ryzen 1600 be good enough for now? What would you guys change if you were to change anything at all?

Psu is a RM650 watt 

Case is the previous case I have

Storage is a 120gb Boot ssd with 1TB hdd

Try getting 16gb RAM, and the pro4 is only 3 phase, I'd try to get something like a PC Mate instead.

I really don't want to do a thorough explanation but it uses simple figures to generalize performance in ALL scenarios, which isn't very helpful, doesn't differentiate between OCed and not OCed results, etc.

and tell the case also which you are using

so which GPU you are having

Honestly I don't have a clue. I got a prebuilt system and it never told me what the case was. It mainly just highlighted the Mobo, Ram, Cpu, And gpu. And currently am running an r9 270.

Budget would be 500 but that would even be pushing it a little bit.

So are you getting a graphics card? Because the R5 1600 doesn't have integrated graphics... which means your PC won't even boot.

 

EDIT: Just realised you have one. Well, go ahead and get the R5 1600.

Make sure you get a motherboard that fits your existing form factor.

 

Simply getting a motherboard, some RAM and a processor would be fine and should be below your $500 mark.

That current choice (Ryzen, 8GB RAM, etc) is great! You can grab another RAM and GPU when you have the money

-Frequencies DON'T represent everything and in many cases that is true (referring to Individual CPU Clocks).

 

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol
