I use my computer for media production (Video)
I have an i5- 750 processor with MSI P55- GD65 moyhrtboard
the motherboard is seriously old which means i need to rebuild'
I am trying to keep to a budget of around £600
my thoughts are
RYZEN 5 - 1600
ASUS PRIME X370 or B350 motherboard (I do not intend to use dual graphic cards) but have 4 hard drives and an ASUS GeForce GTX 770 graphics card
my thoughts are then WD BLUE 512 Gb SSD for a "C" Drive
2x8Gb DDR4 Corsair memory

I would welcome any advice or suggestions
 
Those parts seem well matched. The only thing i would mention is that you should probably get the ASUS GeForce GTX 770 graphics card with 4GB of GDDR5 video memory, not 2GB. Also remember that Nvidia recommends a 600watt power supply for that graphics card. The card requires one six-pin and one eight-pin PCI-E plug from the PSU.

many thanks for your reassurance

I do have a 750 W power supply so plenty big enough.
however at the time mainly because of budget restrictions My GTX 770 card only has 2 Gb of video memory.

do you know if this can be expanded? if not then will have re invest in a new card at some stage

many thanks

Tony
 

A video cards ram can't be expanded. In any case you don't need 4GB, it would just help.
