Check if the RX460 with 4GB RAM fits a Ryzen 5 2600 processor.
Looking to improve your PC next year while keeping costs low. Check out the current setup below—your existing graphics card is great. For upgrading, the RX 460 works well with a Ryzen 5. It’s a solid choice for performance without breaking the bank.
It really depends on your budget, but just to be clear, which part will you improve first?
Avoid purchasing the 2600 due to its high cost relative to its capabilities. Opt for the Ryzen 3100 instead. Regarding the RX 460, I believe it falls short of expectations. For better performance, consider a system with at least the GX 1060 with 6GB RAM and an RTX 580. If budget constraints exist, explore the used market and look for alternatives such as GTX 770, 960, or 1050 Ti.
I understand I’d like to purchase a Ryzen 3rd Gen, but if the MB BIOS isn’t supported my dad just says the same thing about choosing the first series instead. He also thinks AMD can provide an old CPU for installing the BIOS, but he won’t let me trust that idea.
Wait for the b550 release before proceeding. It will include the third generation series by default. You might also contact the seller directly to confirm if the board has the latest BIOS updates. Based on current information, manufacturers and sellers are gradually improving the stock and releasing updated BIOS versions. If the board is new, you have a strong likelihood of finding one with the latest BIOS. Another possibility is visiting nearby computer shops, like repair centers, where they may have spare CPUs available for free BIOS updates.
