hey everyone! Im ordering parts sometime next week, and I wanted to know:

should i get the ryzen 5 2600 or 1600? Ill be only using it for a year, and i dont need frames above 75. Cheaper is better. What should I do?

Well there literally a $10 difference currently per US PCPer with the 1600 being cheaper so that would probably be the better choice plus you could probably get a B350 board for cheaper then the B450 boards and since you'd go with the 1600 you wouldn't need to worry about a BIOS update with the 2600.

If you live near a Microcenter they actually have the Ryzen 1600 for $120 currently, $30 cheaper then PCPer.

Either of it will do just fine, pick whichever u like to. If u're goin to OC, i prefer R5 2600 with B450 - X470 cause they got improved with Ram compatible. Im using r5 1600 and its really great!
