the Ryzen 1200 outperforms the I3 with 4 real cores. Included some slightly faster memory and a slightly better PSU.

Thanks you for replying, I just had one question, do you think that it would be worth it to drop my ram to 8 GB and put the money to a better mobo or something. After doing some research I found that I may not need 16 GB because I'm gonna do some light gaming (League Of Legends) and school/office work.

not enough savings to add an SSD, so I shaved a bit off the case and PSU and also upped the GPU to a 1050ti
