Hi Guys,

My 10 year old Acer laptop just died. so, I am planing to build my first Desktop rig.
I heard about Ryzen and is it even possible to build one in this budget range or i rather go with the tested Intel. This is the big question goin on in my mind for some time now. Hope experts here will help me out.

Questions



1. What is your budget?

o 40K. I can extend an another 10K to the budget.

2. What is your existing hardware configuration (component name - component brand and model)

o None

3. Which hardware will you be keeping (component name - component brand and model)

o None

4. Which hardware component are you looking to buy (component name). If you have already decided on a configuration then please mention the (component brand and model) as well, this will help us in fine tuning your requirement.

o CPU (Is it better to go for RYZEN or even feasible with the given budget.)

o Motherboard

o GPU

o RAM

o Monitor

o PSU

o Cabinet

5. Is this going to be your final configuration or you would be adding/upgrading a component in near future. If yes then please mention when and which component

o I will not be upgrading for 3-4 years

6. Where will you buy this hardware? (Online/City/TE Dealer)

o Chennai

o Open to online purchase

7. Would you consider buying a second hand hardware from the TE market

o Yes

8. What is your intended use for this PC/hardware

o Gaming

o Browsing

o Desktop Processing

o Watching HD movies

o Photo processing (working on RAW files using lightroom mostly)
9. Do you have any brand preference or dislike? Please name them and the reason for your preference/dislike.

o Nothing in Particular

10. If you will be playing games then which type of games will you be playing?

o First Person Shooting - COD

o Racing

o Batman, Watchdogs

11. What is your preferred monitor resolution for gaming and normal usage


1. Gaming - 1280x720

2. Desktop - 1440x900

12. Are you looking to overclock?

o No

13. Which operating system do you intend to use with this configuration?

o Windows 7 64 bit
 
Get these:

AMD Ryzen R5 1400 - 12.5K
Asus Prime B350M-A - 7K
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 2400MHZ - 4.5K
WD Blue 1TB - 3.5K
Antec VP500PC - 3K
Antec GX200 - 3K
Logitech MK200 - 0.8K
Dell SE2216H - 7K
GTX 1050 Ti - 11.5K

For a truly entry level 1080p gaming card though something like RX 570 is bare minimum, and it retails for 15K. If you're able to extend your budget, that'd be a great choice.

There would be few sales happening next week on Amazon/Flipkart. Grab some components from there if possible.

Zotac GTX 1060 3gb- 16K
get a 1060, and you will be able to run most present and many upcoming games maxed out
Gigabyte H110M - 4k
i5 6500 -13K
8gb DDR4 - 4K
WD blue 1tb HDD- 3.5K
PC case - 1.5K
masterwatt Lite 500w - 3.5k

around 40K, you can get a WD blue SSD for around 3.5K, ryzen for 3K extra, and a Logitech G102, Steelseries QCK For around 2K for multiplayer gaming.
 
1)can you increase your budget more ? around how much 7-8k ?

2) if not then can you wait 3 months for cheaper Ryzen 3 processors to launch ?

3) if not then here is the best VFM "Durable" gaming rig possible in your budget
(assuming you don't want to change/upgrade any part till next 3-4 years and don't want to buy used stuff )

Monitor - LG 22MP68VQ-P Freesync- - 9,000 ( don't choose any other monitor , very imp )
PSU - Seasonic SI2II 520w - 5,500
GPU - Sapphire pulse Rx 570 - 15,000 ( and choose only AMD because of Freesync )
CPU - Pentium G4560 - 4,500 ( The Mobo needs BIOS update to support cpu )
Motherboard - Gigabyte H110m DS2 - 4,200
Case - 3,000
Ram Corsair Vengance 2400mhz 8gb - 4,300
HDD -1tb WD - 3,500
KB/M - 800


This comes to Rs 50,000

yes available offline , but if you buy ryzen then you will not be able to fit a better gpu ..
check above reply
 
Actually i am lookin at this build.

AMD Ryzen R5 1600 -
Asus Prime B350M-A - 7K
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 2400MHZ -
WD Blue 1TB -
Antec VP500PC -
Antec GX200 -
Dell SE2216H -
MSI Geforce GTX 1060 3GB GDDR5 DirectX 12 VR Ready (GeForce GTX 1060 3GT OC)

Now, one noob question. Can i build my rig without GPU and later on add GPU (which i thought is feasible in Intel Chips. Is it possible with AMD chips) ?

nope , you will need a gpu to get display with ryzen as it does not have integrated gpu..

with 1060 3gb , rx 570 like gpu , you will be most of the times gpu bottlenecked.. so processor will make less of a difference than a better gpu.. only a few games will benefit from a faster cpu .. ( G4560 + Rx 570 )is better than ( i5 7400 + Gtx 1050ti )

Pentium G4560 is actually a Core i3 processor performance wise.. don't go by the name

for maximum gaming performance right now.. g4560 + rx 570 is the best budget and bang for Buck combo... plus combine it with freesync monitor and you will be able to play games smoothly even at 40-45 fps...

read more about FREESYNC .. don't miss it

if you want to invest more money in CPU for future proofing , then Buying an intel i5 right now isn't good, because it isn't future proof with only 4c/4t ..

so within the limited budget either build your rig around Ryzen 5 for cpu longevity with a cheaper gpu.. ( lower gaming performance ) or go with G4560+ Rx 570 ( more gaming performance , less CPU longevity but also cheaper)

and don't use that psu. it is of Lower quality...

either choose Antec vp550p @4k ( 2 year warranty .. medium quality )
or Seasonic s12 520w...@5.5k ( higher quality 5 year warranty )

Nope, sadly Ryzen CPU doesn't have support for on-board graphics. If you're tight on budget at the moment, then get a cheap used card for the purpose of display output.

Also, don't take the 1060 3GB variant. Stick with RX 570 4GB at ~15K.

Actually i am lookin at the longevity rather than Gaming performance for now. So what is the cheapest GPU i can get so that my Ryzen can work. Even second hand is fine. And thanks for all the info man.. :)
 
psu - seasonic s12 520 - 5.5k
case - antec gx 200/ Corsair SPEC 1 - 3k
ram- Corsair 8gb 4.5k
mobo- Asus B350 plus - 8k
cpu- ryzen 1600,- 16k
monitor - LG 22mp68vq-p -9k
hdd 1tb - 3.5k
kb M - 800

pick cheapeast 2nd hand gpu with hdmi port for rs 1000-1500
 
Go for RX 570 instead of 1060 3GB it a much better option.
I can also get u some good deals on RAM GPU AND SSD if u need u can drop me a ping for the same.

also if u are going for the 1600 chip dont save the 500 and settle for a shitty board since that one is low end and barely gets the updates on time also.
Go for Gigabyte Gaming 3 its the best B350 in the market.
1600 + RX 570 u should be able to play any latest game at ultra 50 60 fps easy.


if u just want a ryzen to work even 2k GPU will do

low budget GTX 1050ti is good but not a great value since 2k odd more u get 570 which is a much better option.

if you need a quote and budget on whole build also u can drop me a pm and if u are from bangalore i can even build it for you.

Get a GT710 or something like that for 2K. Or if you can source a used card, anything like GTX 750 Ti which are going for like 5K ish would be great for casual gaming too.
