If you do not plan on doing any overclock then your build is just fine. The ram sticks are not overkill for your build just because Ryzen loves high frequency ram, and in your situation, if you go with Ryzen APUs, the integrated graphics will do the job very well.

I would pick Ryzen 2400G

You want an APU, the R3 2200G is the best value, if you plan to add a GPU at some point and can afford the R5 2500G go for that

Do not buy a crap motherboard, especially not A chipset, get the ASrock Pro4 at minimum, may need a BIOS update, it at least has some VRM heatsinks. Overclocking the APUs is trivial and is free performance.

 

You probably don't need 16GBs of RAM, but you do want the fastest RAM you can get, 3000mhz is pretty good. If you want to upgrade to an 8 core in the future and can afford 16gbs go for it I suppose.

I dont plan to upgrade for at least 2 or 3 years, so, have any suggestions? Are 4 ram slots overkill?

You only want to use 2 sticks of RAM for the most speed

 

Get the R3 2200G then, because newer better options will be out by then, likely worth the money saved.

[BlitZerWolf2861]

Okay, what if i match the 2200G with an Asrock AB350M Pro4

Should be pretty alright for light 1080p gaming, just ask your retailer if the BIOS is updated for raven ridge.

If the build will be in use for years it's better to invest in higher end hardware.

Well, what's your budget?  Do you want a discrete gpu (1050 ti, 580, whatever)

my currency here is really volatile, so i check prices everyday, 3k myr excluding psu and storage. I'm only considering a gpu to cut some corners

Try and get a 1400 or 1600 with a 1050 ti or better.  Decent budget psus are the cx 2017 models, evga bq and most be quiet models

[BlitZerWolf2861]

Okay, i already have a decent psu. What if i use the 2200G for now and only put in a gpu in the future?

That’d work well. A used 680/780/ti, 7950/70 and the like are still excellent for 1080p gaming. I’m running a used 680 in my rig and I’ve been very happy.

If you go that route a 2400g will have better long term viability

how would a 2200G run on overwatch

Well enough, though if you want to use this cpu for years I really would get the 2400g

[BlitZerWolf2861]
