Hi guys I am upgrading both mine and my sister in laws systems to a ryzen set up.
She has settled on the r5 1400 4c/8t because she wants to do some gaming at 1080p and also live streaming it with obs. Having researched this subject of streaming extensively I've concluded the 1400 will be enough rather than a hex core. We can drop one later if need be. She has 8gb of ddr4 2666mhz. Her Games are on SSDs obviously and she has a gtx 1050ti which perfectly handles the games she plays at high settings 60fps 1080p. ( subnautica/ ark/ team fortress 2. )
She also does some movie making with source filmmaker.
I on the other hand will only be gaming and I want to play the latest aaa games from 2015 to now and beyond at 1080p 60fps. I already have a ryzen 3 1300x and if I need to I'll drop a 3000 chip in when they are out and after the reviews flood in. I also have 8gb 2666 ram but I'm going to upgrade to 16gb soon. I won't be streaming and I won't be video editing etc. I plan to overclock. She won't be. I will be getting a gtx 1660 most likely if people think this is going to be the ideal 60fps 1080p card for high settings?
So now you know each background here's my question. I've aqquired two b350 boards for relatively the same price but I've been out of the game so long since....Well she has an athlon x4 640 and me an old gen apu. I don't know which would be suited best to which person. It might not matter but it might that's why I'm asking here. The boards are.
Msi B350m Pro-VDH and
Asus Prime B350m-E.
They both seem good and similar to me so if anyone has an idea which would be suited to who I'd appreciate it.
