Opinion on these parts

I posted a question on the forum about a week ago asking about my PC design and got some advice on what I should change. I have changed the design and would like your opinion on this build.

Will I be able to play light games like Batman: Arkham asylum, Fortnite and Skyrim on this PC? I will definitely upgrade in the future when I have the money. I am buying my gear from Umart All prices are in AUD

 

The build: (I have a Hard drive and an optical drive already)

With APUs, it is very important to have memory in a dual channel configuration. You lose about 40-50% performance with just a single stick of RAM.

720p low setting yes it would, if you're comfortable with 30-50fps.

want more? i suggest adding 1050ti later.

Thanks for the feedback :) I plan to add a GPU later when I have the money, probably a 1060 or a 1050ti like you recommended

Memory: Team - Vulcan 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory 

this is pretty low, get 8gb at least.

Seriously i'd go with at least 8gb ram for today's situations.

Go with 1 stick 8gb, in the future when u have extra money get another one.

Get this case, looks better : https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/vbkj4D/thermaltake-versa-h18-microatx-mini-tower-case-ca-1j4-00s1wn-00

Faster RAM would really give you better performance with an APU. Also 4 GB istn't really sufficient anymore for anything other than the most basic games

I doubt it would be 50% performance lost. I would say at most 30%, but dual channel ram shouldn't give you 50% more performance. If you have proof, I would love to see it.

Your best off with a fast speed, dual channel configuration with Ryzen.

 

The cheapest 3000MHz, dual channel 8GB kit is from Team Vulcan and retails for around $90.

R5 2400G APU Memory Benchmarks & Single vs. Dual-Channel

Single channel 3200MHz vs Dual channel 2400MHz. If that single channel stick was 2400 or 2666, the 30-40% in games there would go up to 40-50%.
