OK, I've got now:
- 16GB RAM
- 1060 6GB DUAL OC
- 1TB + SSD (256GB)

To finalise the core :
- what CPU to chose
- w/what motherboard (must has some upgrade-ability)

Budget is tight, about 450-500$ on that.

Thanks!

x370 + Ryzen 7 1700+ ....

 

[Tyson Robinson]

B350+ 1600. Then upgrade to zen+ in April

i7 8700k with z370 mobo

AM4 and a B350-board with a 1600X pairing for plain gaming or 1800X for more multitasking potential. Also could go for 1700 with a beefy cooler if OC'ing is your game.

 

[Jonathon Kinney]

I agree with the B350 chipset and something like a Ryzen 5 1600

 

[Diego Hurtado]

Ez ryzen 1600 with x370 board

 

[Derick McClure]

i5 8600k and gigabyte AORUS z370 Gaming 5. Should run ya about $450 for both, depending on sales and stuff.

Well its not bad but if you want to save some.money go or a r5 1400 and a motherboard with max 150 dollars. And then you have money left to upgrade to zen. I mean yeah you can go for the r3 1200 or 1300 for saving even more money. But with the r5 1400 i think you are complete.
