Hi,
My old socket am3 mobo has gone kaput. Going to replace mobo, processor and ram only. Others will use old items

Is this spec ok for office work and casual gaming?

Processor: AMD socket AM4 A8-9600
Motherboard: Asus Prime B350-Plus
Ram: kingston DDR4 2400 8gb x1

Going to use on board graphic so no need to buy gc

Old items
psu: huntkey 500w
hdd: wd 2tb

Thank you

A8 9600 is trash. Go for Ryzen 3 2200G instead.

what's the difference between Ryzen 3 1200 and 2200G?

2200G comes with built-in graphics and newer generation.

Thanks for your suggestion. Ryzen 3 2200G it is.

One more thing, I see many seller bundle this processor with asus prime B320M. Should I buy this board instead of B350-plus? What about B350M

Thanks

There is no B320M. Its A320M. A320 has no overclock support, less USB and SATA ports.

Thanks again for all your replies. Going to the mines today for a pc shopping rclxm9.gif

I want to buy PSU that can support games like CSGO. current psu is going to kaput soon cause pc will shut down without warning when gaming

my rig (at kampung)
CPU: AMD A8-5600K
Mobo: Gigabyte FM2 socket (forget what model)
Ram: 2x 8gb DDR3 1600
GPU: powercolor R7 360

current psu (500W 80+ forget what brand) is around 9 years old (bought second hand, so more than 9 years old)

Thanks

Thanks. Will look into it

If you want something that last longer, Corsair TX 650M at RM379. Or Super Flower Leadex II Gold 550W at around RM400.

Yes, I want it to last as long as possible but my pocket won't permit it, unfortunately☹️

QUOTE(Kristal.S @ Aug 24 2018, 12:54 PM)
Any budget for it?

Can consider this at around RM250: https://shopee.com.my/-SUPER-FLOWER-Silver-...7182.1378294592

Wish can get decent psu at RM200-250

The parts and build quality inside the PSU comes at a price. Japanese capacitors isnt cheap.
