Is the ryzen 3 2200g a good match with a gtx 1050 ti?

[Sinister80s]

I was first going to get a ryzen 5 2600 to go with a b450 tomahawk board but since my budget is pretty small at the moment i was going to get a 2200g for the time being and upgrade later.

A note, we don't have zen 2 yet.

Honestly, save the extra for a 2600 off the bat, it's much cheaper in the long run.

The 2200g only having 8 pcie lanes (most chips will have 16 or more) will prevent any extra addin cards you may want / need to run if you have a dedicated gpu already, plus, you are paying for the igpu, it's not free and you don't need it.

That's true, but the 2200G is still better than the 1200.

Ultimately, going with a 2600 is the best case scenario, but it would be better paried with an RX 580.

The iGPU is an option. People pair 1050 Tis with the 2200G all of the time.

Yeah, people do plenty os dumb or suboptimal things. The igp in that package takes up lot of silicon, that in other processors is used for L3 cache and other goodies. With intel you can;t avoid wasting the igp, with amd you hav the option. so what is the rationale to waste?

It's superior to the R3 1200 in every way despite being an APU. The price is lower than the latter. There's literally no reason to get a 1200.

No it is not. You buy APU only when you want to use its integrated gfx and have no discrete GPU. Get a 2600 as best bang/buck, or if can't afford a lower ryzen CPU.

And they shouldn't. The 2200g is over priced if you don't need the integrated graphics, while the 2600 costs 50% more but doubles performance and will last well I to the forsesable future, plus its only about 50 bucks more.

No one should be using a 2200G outside of ultra budget (no dedicated gpu) a cheap htpc or for basic office / Internet browsing.

Anyone recommending it outside of those use cases is doing a disservice and wasting someone's money.

If you can find a 1200 at a good price (atleast 20-30 bucks less) , it's actually a better buy than a 2200G, yes it's a bit slower, but not really noticeably, but it doesn't have an obsolete (expensive) igpu bolted on eating half the pcie lanes etc. That you won't use with a dedicated gpu.

If OP does plan to upgrade the cpu later, I'd look for second hand 1200 / 1400 / 1600 chips to drop on cheap in the meantime as not to waste money.

Why would i get something like a 1200 if a 2200g costs less and will give me better performance. Even without the igpu its a great price considering something like an i3 8100 is alot more.

With 2200g it is possible use gtx1050ti and use VRR, Freesync monitor. It is a little free bonus.

Tough call with the Ryzen 3 models. Especially when you consider overclocking and every bit of $$$. You could also go dirt cheap with the Athlon X4 950 for now, which holds up pretty well in some games.
