I'm having difficulty in choosing from 3 different budget options for myself.These are the options:

 

Build 1:Ryzen 5 1400

            MSI A320M GAMING MOBO

            Single DIMM Gskill DDR4 8GB RAM

            Sapphire RX560 2GB

 

Build 2:Pentium G4560

            GTX 1060 3GB

            Single DIMM 8GB DDR4 RAM

            ASUS H110D MOBO

 

Build 3:AMD Athlon X4 860K

           GTX 1060 3GB

           Dual DIMMs 8GB DDR3

           Any MSI Mobo with Fm2+

 

My concern is that with Build 2 and 3,I'll see major bottlenecking because of CPU choices.Can it run without any bottlenecks?Or should I opt for the Ryzen build?

(P.S:Other peripherals such as case and storage will be provided from my old system.)

 

Thanks already.

You can edit the post at the bottom of your post. Mods can only delete posts. 

Unsure what power supply to pick?

I would pick build 1. Don't pick build 3 because am2 is a dead socket. You will get better upgradability with the other two.

Edited thanks :)

G4560 build would probably be my vote, just switch the 1060 with a 570 instead (also note that the mobo won't work with the CPU unless it has an updated bios, so unless you have a way of verifying the mobo you get will work with Kaby Lake CPUs get a b250 mobo instead)

1400 is quite meh imo, i5 is better.

EDIT: and the 1400 isn't that much faster than a g4560 

 

G4560+1060 or 570 would be more powerful.

So you say I won't encounter any bottlenecks with a Kaby Lake Pentium and Gtx1060?That's pretty cool but this time comes another problem.In my region,RX570 and GTX1060 3GB is identical in price.But I wonder which one will perform better with G4560.

They are about the same but I would get 570 b/c more vram.

Yeah, it's about the max gpu performance that a g4560 won't bottleneck at all for (though 580 and 1060 6gb for the most part won't be bottlenecked, only in CPU intensive games).

 

I would vote 570, they perform similarily and the extra vram is good to have.
