May I know which CPU would suit the GTX 1050 Ti the best? AMD and Intel

I came across Intel i5 8400 and Ryzen 5 1600 but people say the GPU bottleneck the cpu

For gaming, CPU should cost under RM900

Option 1 - Upgrade you power supply unit. The best option among others.

Which power supply will suit it best? Hope it doesn't cost too much because this option stretched the budget a bit

Personally I will go with the Intel build for gaming. You can wait for cheaper alternative motherboard.

Got a few questions
1. Single channel memory 8GB or dual channel memory 4GBx2 will be better on this build?
2. Can this build play PUBG?
3. Anything else I should adjust on the build?
Thanks

1. Personally I always prefer dual channel than single channel memory.

2. Yes, you can play PUBG flawlessly on medium/low setting. 

3. Add SSD 120GB if you have extra budget. It make your system faster.

Its seem fine for me. Well balanced. The motherboard price really kill your budget. But do you have an external hard drives for your system?

If not then just swap out that 120GB SSD for 1TB Western Digital Blue - RM189

You can always add SSD later.

Luckily I have an old HDD that I can reuse

Option 2 due to upgradeability. AMD supports the same socket till at least 2020

But if I go for Option 1 I still can upgrade the GPU in the future right? Because I've seen benchmarks that Intel is better than Ryzen in gaming.
