Question CPU AND MOTHERBOARD COMPATIBILITY

My 1200 even when overclocked only pulls 75w during a cinebench run according to hardware monitor, only 10w more than the rated TDP.

The DeepCool DA PSUs are not based around a great platform, but they claim to offer decent 80+ bronze efficiency and decent amperage on the 12v rail. They also claim to have Over Voltage Protection, Under Voltage Protection, Over Power Protection, Over Current Protection, Over Temperature Protection, and Short Circuit Protection. I can't seem to find a review testing these claims.
+12V Max PowerDA700: 650W
DA600: 552W
DA500: 456W
Even the 500w should offer a good 38A on the 12v rail, which should be adequate for a 1200 and 1650.

That is a good point and the only thing that would make me pull the 1200 recommendation, but the jump in power due to the OC wouldn't be 100W extra on consumption, so it should be ok. Making the multiplier just 100Mhz higher than the 2200g would allow it to stretch its legs into the 95W territory as the CPU cores themselves seem to be really close in consumption, even if the SoC is higher in terms of power consumption (as per the Anandtech data).

Overall, both CPUs are not bad choices. My inclination for the 1200 is because it does not have the GPU baggage so it can OC better if you want. If you're not going to be able to get a decent PSU anytime soon, then that advantage becomes a tad less relevant. You could even argue you lose the GPU in that case.

Cheers!

Unlucky the ryzen 3 2200g is not in stock in anymore :coldsweat::coldsweat: so i guess i am getting the 1200 is that cpu good as the 2200G?
i saw some benchmarks its almost the same. i have extra 10dollars for the psu so i guess i can buy a better psu.
is this one good?

its a 80plus bronze modular i guess its good?
plz reply and tell me if it is compatible with my case and will the 1200 be compatible with my msi b450m pro m2 motherboard and will i be able to oc it?
EDIT
And will my gpu be compatible with this psu. and will my gpu be compatible with the motherboard and cpu cuz on some builds i saw that on csgo there are some blurry effects when scoping in with the sniper rifle and bcs i am a sniper rifle player i dont like them it blurs the whole scope. will that happen or i have to turn it off in nvidia control panel?

i am gonna get a 500W Sharkoon modular 80plus bronze is that one good pls tell me and will the 1200 be compatible with my motherboard and gpu and will the gpu be compatible with the psu and the psu with the case and will i be able to oc the 1200 to 2200g speeds or 3.9GHz cuz i've seen some people doing that will it increase my temps?
here is my build

Reading this:

Load 12 V1: 38 A
Max. Combined Power 12 V: 456 W

It should be fine for what you want to do, yes.

Cheers!

thank you
btw will i be able to oc the cpu to 3.9 or 3.8GHz with that speed it performs better than the i3 7100 which is 50euro more expensive
and will it shorten my life span of the cpu?

The bundled cooler won't give you much headroom, I think? You can try by all means, but if there's instability, dial back the OC to the point where it behaves fine. You don't want your CPU to be over 75°C if possible so it lasts for a long time.

And I'm willing to say this should be better than the i3 7100 by a good amount, as that thing is 2c4t and the 1200 is 4c4t.

Cheers!
 
At stock, the Ryzen 3 1200 will beat the 7100. The 7100 is a dual-core and more expensive as well as requiring older motherboards. Just ignore the 7100.

I have had no trouble getting my 1200 to 3.7ghz on the stock cooler at 1.2875v, however, mine won't go further with the stock cooler. You would want a better cooler to push the chip above 3900mhz or so. Keep temps under 80c preferably and voltage under 1.4v.

The 1200 is compatable with that motherboard and your gpu is compatable with that PSU. That PSU seems pretty decent for what you need.

Thank you both
