Originally, I planned on purchasing an R5 3600 with a 1660 super, but since GPU costs haven't dropped significantly, I'll have to settle with an APU.
I want to use this chip mostly for gaming (Valorant, Rocket League, GTA V, etc. ), but not for anything too high-intensity, as this chip has its limitations. I don't need to perform any photo or video editing; all I have to do is game and do some academics.
As this is my first construction, I'd appreciate some advice and recommendations. My current setup is as follows:
R5 5600g CPU/GPU
Mobo: This is where I require assistance. I realise that certain motherboards require a bios update, but are there any that do it out of the box?
Crucial Ballistix 2x8GB ddr4-3600 memory
WD blue Sn550 1TB NVME SSD storage
Case: I'm considering the NZXT H510 Mid Tower, but I'm open to ideas.
Power supply: EVGA 600W 80+ Bronze semi modular (I realise it's excessive for this APU, but I'll be able to maintain the psu until I acquire a GPU).
I'm now playing Grand Theft Auto V or Warzone. Please recommend this game with high graphics.
Any assistance would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
