Ryzen 5 2400g or ryzen 3 2200g +gt 1030

[pcnoob27]

Hey, So I want to make a 420 EUR build in my country(The Netherlands) and I made a build with the ryzen 5 2400g, the only thing is that I want the best bang for buck and the gt 1030 is slightly better. Which should I get? Or if anyone got a better 420 Eur build could the share it here? Thanks in Advance.

Get the 2400g. You get the better cpu and similar gaming performance. The better cpu is nice to have in case you want to buy a nice dedicated gpu down the road.

the best for that budget is used hardware.. are you comfortable with that?

 

one question, why would you build with an apu and buy a gt 1030?

Getting the R3 2200G and a GT 1030 is pointless, with fast RAM and an overclock in place, the APU performs very similarly to the GT 1030 so you'd be pretty much wasting money.

 

The best bang for the buck is the R3 2200G alone, you can upgrade the PC with a dedicated GPU later and just use the iGPU from the 2200G for now. The saved money can go towards getting faster/more memory, better board or other components.

Yes, but I cannot find any good used pc's in my country, and I always find it more exciting to get brand new things
