I am in the process of formulating my first actual build on the not expensive end. I would like to know if I should get a G4560 or a Ryzen 3 2200g for the CPU. I am set on the GTX 1050 though. I see the G4560 is less expensive than the 2200g which may be the turning factor but I think the 2200g would be better. Let me know what you think would be better.

the performance would be similar on single threaded jobs or games, but for most games 2200G outperforms G4560.

edit: choose 2200G then
the extra cores help most modern games

If you are looking at a G4560 gaming build, instead go with a G5400 and a 300 series board H310, B360, or H370. Then you can later add an I5 8400 six core, or the new 9 series 8 cores with a bios update. G4560 will only go with 200 or 100 series boards with a bios update and then cap out with a 7 series 4 core 8 thread cpu.
