Graphics: Vega 11 (iGPU in 2400G) is much faster than an old Radeon HD 6790. It's also newer. So, it supports graphics options a Radeon HD 6790 never will.

Although I'm not a huge fan of benchmark sites due to their limitations. The differences are drastic enough to to make the comparison useful.

CPU: The Ryzen 2400G speed is nearly identical to a Core i7 4770, overall slightly faster as it wins in the multi-threaded test handily. As the 2400G can also be overclocked. It is the better choice.

Motherboard: Although you don't list your choices. A decent Ryzen board will have more recent tech built in. Such as USB 3.1 Gen 2, USB-C and good...


Actually the price tag of a 2600(non X) should be pretty close to a 2400G, in fact both of them are listing at $160USD on newegg
Unless your country has different price tags for them. :)

RAM: Ryzen will be using faster DDR4 RAM.

If the prices are the same. I see no reason to get the Intel setup.
 
Solution
1. The price of 2400g and 2600 are almost the same.
2. If you plan to get a dedicated GPU anyway, you will not be needing the iGPU after you have the dedicated GPU. You might as well skip the iGPU and go with the dedicated GPU directly e.g. RX570/580.

I dunno about the price of 2600 on your part of the world but in US and Germany, 2400g and 2600 are very much alike in price (max €20 difference). If 2600 is really too expensive, try your luck with the slightly older 1600.
