Hi all, not been in here since 2012 when I built my current PC, need to upgrade now, have about 500 to spend so looking for best gaming performance I can get for this limited budget, here's my list of parts from my current build, unlikely I know but can anything be salvaged towards the new build?
Thanks in advance,

Ryzen 3600, a B450 motherboard, 16GB 3200mhz ram = ~£360.
Spend the rest on a 2nd hand 980ti for ~ £140.

Best you'll do for £500, but your rig will be very fast.
Reuse your case, power supply, hard drive, dvd drive.
Sell your old stuff off and I bet you'll not be far off having enough for a 512GB M2 SSD.

Thanks, any particular B450 you can recommend?
