Well, we’re here again, the purpose of this assembly will be focused on a PC for gaming. Obviously, it serves for more than that, but our main focus in this assembly will be to be able to play in 1080p resolution with Medium and High graphics depending on the game smoothly, that the team gives us possibilities to Improve in the Future, so as not to have to change it for several years, but as always with the least possible budget, so this time we will continue with Ryzen.

1. Video Card: MSI Gaming Radeon RX 6400

As it is a PC for gaming our base will be the video card, but we want the best one to play that is economical and current, and that’s where the Radeon RX 6400 comes in.

This card is good because it offers you the possibility to enjoy Current games on your PC without spending a lot of money. In addition, it has a small and quiet design that fits in any cabinet and does not bother you with annoying noises. It also allows you to take advantage of the advantages of AMD RDNA 2 technology, such as AMD Infinity Cache which improves bandwidth and reduces power consumption. And best of all, it is also compatible with the latest technologies such as DisplayPort 1.4a, HDMI 2.1, FreeSync and DirectX 12, which guarantee you a good visual experience and greater fluidity.

Well, we already have the video card and surely if you read the post of the budget of 350$ you will be thinking about the Ryzen 5 4600G, and although it could serve for this configuration, we will opt for a slightly more current processor, which is also economical and is a better option for the future for this assembly.


2. Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5500

This processor does not have integrated graphics, do you know what that means? That it is much more specialized in getting the maximum performance out of this assembly’s graphics card, but not only this graphics card, but you could squeeze the performance out of an RTX 3070 or RTX 3080, which means we have game for a while.

This processor has six cores and 12 threads, which means it can run multiple tasks at the same time without losing performance. Its base speed is 3.6 GHz, but it can go up to 4.2 GHz in turbo mode, which gives it great potential for the most demanding games. In addition, it has a L2 cache of 3 MB and a L3 cache of 16 MB, which allows it to quickly access the most relevant information. And all this with a FinFET technology of 7 nm, which reduces power consumption and heat generated. It’s a processor that offers you the best of both worlds: power and efficiency.

It has very low consumption so the cooler it includes is more than good enough not to worry about it, but well let’s continue.


3. BOARD: Gigabyte A520M S2H

This board without doubts continues offering the best of quality and economy at the same time, so we will use it for this assembly since it is compatible with this processor and in case it is not updated we only need a USB Pendrive unlike other boards that although they are also compatible it is necessary to have a processor from previous generations to be able to update them.

Don’t worry about whether or not the budget will reach.


4. RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB

As this PC we want specifically for Gaming we also want that inside does not look so simple but of course without spending too much money either and that’s where Corsair’s Ram memories come in not only are they very fluid for games and applications but they also give a special touch of color to this assembly being able to choose between several RGB lighting effects and synchronize them with other Corsair components It’s very easy to install and configure just fit the modules into slots and activate XMP profile in BIOS And best of all it has a good quality-price ratio.

Well, our PC is taking shape, but we’re not done yet, let’s go with the storage.


5. Storage: Crucial P3 SSD PCIe Gen3 1TB

This SSD is amazing. Not only does it boot the system in seconds, but it also loads games and applications very quickly, which is just what we’re looking for for this assembly, 1TB will serve us for several games simultaneously, in addition to storing personal files and in the future we would have the Sata ports free if we need more storage.

Now we have the most important thing, but we still need a component to protect all the other components.


6. Power Supply: Thermaltake SMART 600W

One point must be made clear, you don’t need 600W for this Assembly, so why do we put this power supply? Because its capacity allows us in the future to only change the video card if we want to improve this configuration, we could even put an RTX 3080 that in a consumption at 100% with all components would be approximately 560W, and that would be in a case of extreme stress.

So yes, with this power supply we could use any Mid-Range Graphics Card, even the next ones to come out and it would hold up without breaking a sweat, that’s why we chose this one instead of the 500W one, thinking about the future, it also has a good quality-price ratio.
