Late 2017 Build

[AkiTech]

Im confused with what CPU to pair with the GTX 1060, is it the Ryzen 3 1300X or the Ryzen 5 1400.. I might go for the 1400 but it would mean picking up a 1050Ti, budget reasons *ptff* 

 

Specs 1 
R3 1300X

B350 Mobo

GTX 1060

8GB RAM

1TB HDD

550W PSU

 

Specs 2

R5 1400

A320 Mobo

GTX 1050Ti

1TB HDD

8GB RAM

550W PSU

But the 1400 has SMT so it's 4 core/8 threads, the 1300x doesn't have SMT so is just a 4 core.

450 is enough for a 1060 and low powered cpu. The CXm line is so much better than the VS units.
