Which PC for gaming are Ryzen 5/7 and Nvidia GTX 1650/1660?

I would like to buy a new PC - just in advance I do not really have any idea about it, just what some friends have told me - It should be absolutely Ryzen and better than the Nvidia GTX 1060.

I mainly want to play survival crafting games like 7 Days to Die incl. Mods / Mist Survival / Ark incl. Mods / Minecraft LITW / and possibly more to come out in the future.

What do you think, which PC would fit this. I would have considered the following:

# 1: Gaming PC AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6x3.6GHz | ASUS Board | 16GB DDR4 | 256GB SSD | Nvidia GTX 1650 4GB 4K HDMI | DVD-RW | USB 3.1 | SATA3 | Windows 10 Pro | 3 Year Warranty

# 2: Gaming PC AMD Ryzen 7 2700X 8x3.6GHz | ASUS Board | 16GB DDR4 | 512GB M2 & amp; 1TB SSD | Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti 6GB 4K HDMI | DVD-RW | USB 3.1 | SATA3 | Windows 10 Pro | 3 Year Warranty

Buying gaming PC's on Amazon is the worst thing you can do

How come?

Because they are all overpriced

OK. And where would it be recommendable to buy?

To make it short: the two PCs are garbage. Never buy something like that on Amazon.
On your budget, you are best advised with this system here:

"900 Edition" for 1000 euro. That's why I would never order there…

The second PC is less bad. But I would buy it only if I was threatened with a gun.

Because both are bad (at least the price / performance ratio)

To break that up for you

Both CPUs are about the same speed.

The Ryzen 5 3600 only has six instead of eight cores (like the Ryzen 7 2700x) but with its better IPC and better single core performance it makes up for the two missing cores.

The GTX 1650 is roughly at the level of a GTX 1060 and is never noticeably faster.

What makes the second system unnecessarily expensive is the config with two SSD drives. There are applications where two SSD drives make sense, but not necessarily in gaming. In that case you would either use a large SSD with 1TB solo or a smaller one (like the 512MB SSD) and a hard drive as a data grabber for pictures, videos, music and games you do not use that often.

The built-in motherboard (Asus Prime A320M-K) is absolute garbage, this board is a beginner board which is intended for the small CPUs like the AMD Ax-XXXX or Athlon (maybe the Ryzen 3 and Ryzen 5) with integrated GPU). These motherboards are generally not overclocked and have few expansion options (for example, only two RAM slots).

The still advertised is the Libre Office 2016 as a full version here is a mockery, because it is an open source software that is free anyway.

In addition, if you buy on Amazon you pay a huge surcharge, the same system can be found on the system website:

https://www.systemtreff.de/Pro-Gaming-PC-AMD-Ryzen-7-2700X-8x43GHz-16-GB-DDR4-2666Mhz-Nvidia-GTX-1660Ti-6GB-512GB-M2-SSD-1TB-SSD

only with the difference, that it costs almost 120, - € less (well, Amazon wants to have a little money if you have your goods there).

But on the Systemtreff website is also called the power supply and that it should be the Xilence Pervormance C XP600 supposedly has 600W.

But if you go now, on the Xilence website, and look at the technical data for the power supply, then you realize that the 600W is not a continuous power but peak performance is only for a few milliseconds can be accessed. At continuous power, the power supply only 450W (which then also corresponds to the performance of good manufacturers)

https://www.xilence.net/de/power-supplies/18

For the system 450W continuous power would be more than sufficient, but if you plan later to upgrade a more powerful graphics card, then you will eventually need to change the power supply.

For a budget around 1000, - € you get better systems.

A system similar to the performance of the linked Amazon offer you get at HardwareRat for 800, - €

https://hardwarerat.de/...0-ssd?c=78

(Has only a smaller SSD and a hard disk)

or at Dubaro (without Windows - you have to buy this separately)

(My suggestion you can load with the ID 414823)

Proposal has better motherboard, better graphics card, better power supply but no second SSD but a HDD and no Windows here)

Very good answer!
