Does this PC compilation make sense?

I will program the PC for light tasks like Youtube, Word, but also for some gaming. It should be enough for Minecraft, but I would also like to play Apex on it. The lowest settings on Full HD with a 60hz screen would suffice for me. Can the PC do that in terms of performance? And is the configuration generally useful? Incidentally, I would use the PC for about 5 years. I can upgrade RAM and graphics card later. I would rather buy the Ryzen 5 3400g, but it is not available or for over 180 euro…

The computer:

(+ Power supply: Pure Power 11 400w) (and yes the housing has to be simple. RGB 😍)

GTX 1050 TI for Full HD on low

Which operating system?

What program including games

I have an average of 50fps on Heaven Benchmark

Operating system: Windows 10 pro (still have a key left)

Games: Minecraft, Apex

Programs: The one you use: Browser, Office and Discord (mostly)

Okay yes

(With Chrome I don't think it can (but don't use it either) RAM problems if too much is open at once

But don't worry about it

When the RAM is full, the SSD is used as a RAM cache

Yes the games run on the PC.

NO!

Why?

A configuration of 800 euro would make a lot more sense, because for 400 euro you can't even offer a basis for a later upgrade.

😊

For only 400 EUR you have chosen the best possible, that much can be said!

You only have a small problem, if you want to upgrade later, you need a new CPU + new graphics card + new RAM, because the Ryzen 3200 is already very scarce by the CPU, and the 8 GB RAM too. (If you later want to 16 GB and install 4x 4GB, there are often compatibility problems, so you might have to buy a new KIT 2x 8 GB)

So it would actually be better if you saved up to 600 EUR and then bought https://hardwarerat.de/...a-ssd?c=78. Here you get future-proof 6 cores / 12 threads and directly 16 GB RAM, as well as a graphics card that creates all games in high with 60 FPS.

You pay + 50% more, but achieve + 200% game performance. In addition, you no longer need to change the CPU and RAM, just the graphics card, if necessary, again in 3-4 years.

Thank you for your answer! You really convinced me. I have put together the PC at Mindfactory with a few changes; e.g. I think that the RAM from crucial looks better (and only costs 10 euro more).

If your budget is up to it, it's just a much better choice. 😊 The Ryzen 1600 will definitely continue to run all games at 60 FPS for 5 more years, and the 16 GB are sure to be perfect for 5 years!

PS: If you still have +10 EUR, take the https://www.mindfactory.de/...67546.html which has a lot better user ratings. 😊
