Hi

I'm pretty much building my brothers PC but I wanted to double check if those components are compatible with each other.

CPU
AMD Ryzen 7 1700X 95 W 8 Core/16 Threads 3.8 GHz 4 MB CPU - Black (Due to clearance its cheap now)
Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-AB350-Gaming 3 Next Gen AMD Ryzen CPU AM4 Socket DDR4 PCIe Gen3 USB 3.1 ATX Motherboard
GPU
EVGA Geforce 1050 TI (which we currently have)
RAM
8th ddr3 1600mhz generic ram
PSU
500 Watt (also we already own one)

My brotrher bought his graphics card around a month ago and we done a risky move of upgrading one component isntead everything so now i wanted to see if we can assemble the PC using that graphics card ram and psu

P.S. we might need to upgrade the RAM as well but if there is a chance to avoid it I would appreciate it

PC Cases suggestions and fans are appreciaited

Thanks
 
Solution
You will need ddr4 ram as ddr3 is not compatible. I would highly recommend dual channel ram of speeds of around 3000-3200mhz as ryzen processors love fast ram. Whats the specifics on your psu?
