Helo everyone, just wanted to know if everything is compatible with each other.

I've heard stories about how the Ryzen 5 1600 is very strict on its RAM and such and how buying a cheap MOBO like this is a bad idea, but I've read reviews and such on each item to ensure that I was satisfied with what I would end up with. But this all leaves me with one question;

Is everything compatible?

AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2 GHz 6-Core Processor w/ Stock cooler (Not overclocking)

ASRock - AB350M Pro4 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard

Kingston - Predator 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory

Kingston - A400 240 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive + Seagate - BarraCuda 1 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Corsair CX450M 80+ Bronze 450W ATX Power Supply

Inno3D GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Twin X2

All these parts were kept in mind to stay under my budget of $1200 aussie dollars.

Thanks! :)
 
Solution
So I would swap the Ryzen 1600 for the 2600 and the AB350 for the ASRock B450M PRO4 AM4. The price of them is almost exactly the same but with the 2600 you will get better single thread performance and RAM is a little less of a factor.

I would also suggest a CX550M so if you get abeefier GPU down the line you will be fine, and if you have it in your budget try and find something like a Sesonic FOCUS Gold 550, much better PSU, but the CX line is decent for budget component.

all of these parts are compatible and should work right away. if you are concerned about ram and mobo compatibility that motherboard is fine and so is the ram but if you want the beat experience then get a kit of gskill flare x it is designed for ryzen.
