Welcome to the forums my friend!
  • In order for the 3600 to run on the B450 Aorus, the motherboard will need a BIOS update. In order to do this you would need a 2nd Generation AM4 CPU to boot with before installing the 3600. Alternatively, you can verify that the seller ships with the latest BIOS, and it should work out of the box. Alternatively a MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX is compatible out of the box.
  • PSU is excellent quality, but also more than you need, if you want to save a bit of money, you could even downgrade to a good quality 450W and that would run fine. 550W would give more headroom for future upgrades.
  • The A400 SSDs aren't fantastic, but you get what you pay for and will still give you fast boot up times,but they show...

  • If you're going Ryzen, it would be best to put a big more budget into at least 3000MHz RAM as the Ryzen systems work much better with faster RAM.

Thanks bro !!!!
1.Yes i will make aure bios is updated. Tomhawk max reviews are bad in our country so would avoid it.


2.550w and 450w txm are not available with many sellers and for some reason they are selling at higher price than 650w (lol).
Also is seasonic bronze s12 ii 550w good ( it lies in low tier list :
Tier D

Hi, I agree with PC Tailor, if anything the RAM really needs an upgrade.

If youre planing on gaming (I can almost bet you do :) ) or productivity work, a 2 x 8GB DDR4 3000/3200MHz kit will be great for your build. Dual channel makes a noticeable diference. Heck I would even pick 2x 4GB DDR4 3000MHz kit, over 1x 16GB stick all the time.

And yeah the Kingston A400 will be faster but keep in mind is a DRAM-less SSD so it does not have a fast cache integrated. But if you have to pick between upgrading this part or getting better RAM, then get the better RAM!
(Just in case, better solutions will be the Crucial MX500 or the P1).

Cheers
