ryzen, i5s sucks now, not worth getting, your build.

You have the better build

Your build is a little better with the R5, but I would get that 650W (Or 550 to save) G2 instead of that NEX G1 as its not that great for the price.

Going to have to say yours is the best since you've went for Ryzen 5, but it is flawed in some parts.

 

Here's what I recommend:

Thanks!

I would change your build around like this, $1 less and you can end up with a R7 1700.
