Will a be compatible with a Ryzen 3 1200, ddr4 ram and a Nvidia Geforce Gtx 1050 OC 2gb?

kinghenry101 · Feb 20, 2018

I'm planning on upgrading my gaming rig so I won't have to constantly keep worrying if my rig can run a game. I look forward to getting a better motherboard such as a ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4, a new CPU because my current one (AMD FX 4300) is probably not gonna work with it. The CPU i look forward to getting is a Ryzen 3 1200. A new GPU, Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 OC 2g to add as a cherry on top. Will this potential rig work together with or without minimal bottle necking ?

It should work fine, but you will also need DDR4 RAM along with it. The 1200 + 1050 is a pretty good combo for medium setting gaming upto 1080p.

Do you have any recommendations that aren't extremely expensive? i'm looking for like 8 gigabytes or 12 gigabytes.

WildCard999 · Feb 20, 2018

Your going to want to overclock it with the stock AMD Wraith cooler to get the most out of it. As for the RAM try to get 2666mhz+ as Ryzen performs better with it.

Hellfire13 · Feb 20, 2018

Ryzen is a bit picky about RAM. If you want the best performance, then the GSkill Flare X lineup is the best. AMD recommends 2666mhz and above, but the sweet spot is 3000/3200mhz. If you cannot pick the Gskill units, pick whichever kit is cheapest at your location, meeting the above criterias... https://www.toptengamer.com/best-ram-amd-ryzen-5-7-cpu/

WildCard999 :

Does the stock AMD Wraith cooler come with the Ryzen 3 1200?

Hellfire13 · Feb 20, 2018

Yes it does.

kinghenry101 · Feb 20, 2018

Hellfire13 :

Considering the Gskill FlareX Lineup is way too expensive for me, is there any other ram that will work?

WildCard999 · Feb 20, 2018

Not sure what your budget is but something like this would work fine for RAM.

A lot of the components you listed out I'm getting at Newegg.com so it's gonna come out way cheaper.

kinghenry101 · Feb 20, 2018

Hellfire13 :

Thanks, but I'm only looking to get a motherboard, videocard, cpu and ram. Unless the motherboard won't fit inside comfortably my ASUS M52BC case, I'm not gonna a lot of the other stuff you added.

That site takes whichever retailer has the lowest price for the particular part and selects it. If Newegg had it then it was listed for a higher price. I found a cheaper video card as well and changed the retailer to Newegg only if that helps.

consider a new power supply if you are migrating. They generally should be replaced if you've been running it for 5+ years or it is a lower quality unit. A new case would not cost much either. A new look is always nice.

Sheesh... this is going to come out expensive. Thanks, i'll keep many of these things in mind.

jr9 · Feb 20, 2018

That's about as cheap as a budget gaming PC costs these days. Graphics cards and DDR4 is expensive. Any less GPU power or RAM and you will have garbage performance. Yes you could stay on FX and get a new GPU (and live with the bottleneck stuttering) but honestly don't upgrade your FX CPU to another. You'd be better off hunting for a refurbished Intel core i5 PC from generation 2-4.

WildCard999 · Feb 20, 2018

You could always get the 2200G, overclock it and use the iGPU until you can save up and get a better GPU such as the 1050 ti.

Hellfire13 · Feb 20, 2018

This si the cheapest you should go without affecting performance...

Hellfire13 :

I was intrigued buy the motherboard you posted and I'm not really looking forward to getting a new case or power supply. My current computer is an ASUS M52BC with the AMD FX 4300. The question is, Will the tomahawk atx am4 motherboard fit in my computer?

Hellfire13 · Feb 20, 2018

I could not find the motherboard form factor about that Asus PC anywhere, except for this thread... http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2951357/motherboard-asus-m25bc-us006s-fit-case.html

If your current motherboard is ATX form factor as mentioned, then the above motherboard listed should fit as it is same.

kinghenry101 · Feb 20, 2018

Hellfire13 :

This is my current motherboard. If that's what you're asking, 90PA06Q0-M0XBN0 Asus Evo2 M52BC AMD Desktop Motherboard.

Hellfire13 · Feb 20, 2018

Form factor is not mentioned anywhere but it looks ITX to me. Your case might not fit a ATX board.
If that is the case, then you have two options...

>>>>> Get ITX board by paying extra to fit in that case... (not recommended)
