Okay so i'm Building a new "budget" rig next week but i never bought AMD before.

I'm not going to overclock. So what's Ryzen cpu should i get. Looking to pair it with these components.

Gigabyte B450m Gaming
Team Group Vulcan 16gb kit 3000mh
Gigabyte RX570 Gaming 4GB

I don't want much hastle with setting shit up and overclockings not my thing, but everything up to a Ryzen 1600X is below thé i3 8100 right now in my country.
 
Solution
Well the 1xxx Ryzen parts don’t boost themselves as well as the 2xxx parts do.

If you have to I guess I’d get the 1600x but if you can get a B350 board cheaper than a B450 do that. No need for the newer chipset you won’t be able to take advantage of.

If you are going for 1st Gen parts, then certainly go for the 1600x. Depending on your needs, maybe look at the 1700x 8 core. I know in the United States, the 1700x can be had for a bargain if you get lucky. However, whichever you go for, go for the x version of the chip for the higher clock speeds, especially on the 1st generation parts.
