Hello a quick question, is the Ryzen 3 1200 suitable for photoshop, graphics editing with 8gb RAM and a 1030 card?

Or would I be better off with an i5 7500 8Gb RAM and no video card, im thinking of future upgradability, but at the moment im on a very tight budget.

Just wondering if the i5 with 8gb of RAM is better than a Ryzen 3 with 8Gb RAM and a 1030 card considering the intel has onboard graphics.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but thanks for any thoughts, cheers, Zoob
 
Thanks, yes its supported. It seems its as good as most £60 cards foe what i need so i think i'm buying the i5 instead and save money and have better upgrade options and headroom with the i5 over the Ryzen.
 
Hey, thanks for replys, oh god dont give me more options.. ;p Its being used with an HD graphics drawing tablet, its for my neice and she is into anime and manga drawing, not so much gaming if any. we only have a small budget of £450, but i dont need the PSU or OS. I'm just trying to builds somthing that works well now and has some upgrade options. I wish I had more budget, but I dont, I need to get the Mobo, RAM, CPU, SSD and case from that.

It wont be used for overclokcing


And now the ryzen 5 1600 is on offer

If i cant build anything decent enough I was thinking of a 2nd hand chip i5, if so what should i look for?
