Push 2400g Personally as if you every add in GPU, 4 core 8 thread cpu will perform better then the 2200g 4c/4t will !

PSU unit is Tier 3 , push tier 2 units if you can or have the space for it

^^^^still not fully updated though but covers your PSU choice

nice case for it

Ow man I almost said **** it lets build a real rig! I suck at budget build never turns out to be budget build. This PSU any good? I always used to buy EVGA Gold in the past..

cracking deal! normally quote Formula 450w as its the same price range, but with the bequiet being on price drop and simi modular ( formula isn;t) its a good buy

will allow you to open up and run 6/8 core ryzne and RX 580 or like wise GPU in the future too :D

Great deal ...

You could take risk with GPU and get ryzen 1400 ....

Any way to test GPU ?

Yea I will try put test it on my brothers beast of a pc but he's bit territorial about his computer. I assume it will much better than the apu.

I love the way this started off as home pc build now I'm thinking about upgrading already lol
