Hello there i seen this fantastic deal today link below. I was wondering what cpu id be best adding and any additional fans ect. I plan to pair it with a gtx 1050ti 4gb.
Its just for moderate gaming nothing too extreme.

Gigabyte AX370-GAMING 5 motherboard
Corsair 8GB Vengeance LPX DDR4 (2x4gb 2400mhz ram)
Corsair 650w vs650 psu
DeepCool Dukase V2 Black Windowed PC Gaming Case

Total £260.

I personally would choose [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] to go with that motherboard and setup. You can get a little more performance with [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] but, this one doesn't come with a cooler so that is something that you are going to have to get as well.

Confusing post is confusing. Add whichever compatible CPU you have the budget for, we don't know your budget for a CPU. Is £260 for the 4 components listed(motherboard, RAM, case, and PSU)? If so, that's not a great deal tbh.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] / [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Motherboard: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (£62.15 @ Ebuyer)
Memory: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (£83.99 @ Aria PC)
Case: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (£47.94 @ Aria PC)
Power Supply: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (£47.99 @ Amazon UK)
Total: £242.07
£20 cheaper with a better case, much better PSU, and better RAM for Ryzen(2666MHz is the minimum I'd recommend, 3000/3200MHz is ideal). Motherboard isn't nearly as high end, but still more than adequate for something like an R5 1600, which I've just noticed you can get right now for only £135 because Ryzen 2000 just released!;

or you could even grab an R3 2200G for £75.

If you go with the R3 2200G, you'll absolutely want dual channel RAM so swap the Corsair 1x8GB for this;

Sorry i do apologie. It was in the heat of the moment thinking i was getting a bargain.

I currently have a pc with the current spec.
Intel G4560 dual core 3.5ghz Kaby Lake
Nvidia GT 1030 2gb
8gb (2x 4gb) DDR4 2400 Ram
MSI Intel B250M PRO-VDH Motherboard
120ssd
450w Corsair

I was planning on keeping it for other tasks but now im thinking i should just sell the gpu & cpu, replace them with the gtx 1050ti 4gb & i5 8400.
Would that be better option?
