Looking at upgrades for wifes system.

Have initially listed:
gigabyte ga-ab350 gaming 3
corsair vengeance lpx 1x16gb ddr4 2400MHz
ryzen 3 2200g

And carry over existing PSU, and dual 23" monitors.

Now, I was thinking that the hd 6850 gfx would carry over as well, but it looks as though the igpu on ryzen 3/5 is better? In which case I'd want a mobo with 2x hdmi (or 2x display port) to use straight through the igpu rather 1x hdmi, 1x dvi-d. Am I right? What are my options, or best similar build alternatives?

I'm not sure if the IGP will be better than the 6850, however for the outputs, you can just use a cheap DVI to HDMI adapter for the second display. Don't think there are any motherboards with 2 HDMI or 2 DP ports.

What will she use the PC for?
