Hello everyone, as the title suggests i need some help with the GPU for my Ryzen build.

In a few weeks time i will be building my first Ryzen PC with the Ryzen 5 1600 CPU, the problem is i only have a 650€ budget, which is enough for the R5 1600 + 8gb 3200Mhz RAM and SSD+HDD and all other components, except for the GPU, the reason there isn't one included in the build is because i have an RX 460.

So my question is, would you rather get the Ryzen 5 1600 build and use the RX 460 until you can afford a GTX 1080 in a few months, or just get the Ryzen 3 1200 and a brand new GTX 1050ti (since 1060 pricing has skyrocketed).?

 
Solution
Get the 1600 and use the 460 for a while until you can get the 1080. Ultimately it will perform much much better and last you way longer than the 1200+1050ti.
