R3 1200 vs R3 2200G ???

[stefanwilkinson24]

So,
I've decided to sell my current PC to my sister for £200. I'm going to put my GTX 750 Ti, that is just lying around into the PC, and keep my GTX 1050 Ti. Shall I get the Ryzen 3 2200G, or the Ryzen 3 1200? To pair with my GTX 1050 Ti. I am going to be using 2 monitors so I was thinking of hooking my GTX 1050 Ti into one monitor and using the APU to power another monitor without losing much performance. I was thinking of buying:

PSU + Case

Storage
(I already have an SSD and HDD lying around so I'll use them for free!)

It all totals to like £240, I can afford that. I'm mostly going to be playing PUBG, Fortnite, Minecraft, and I'm also going to be doing some video editing. I know that my budget is small but I think that this upgrade will be worth it from what I already have!

Current Parts:

Processor
AMD A8 7600

GPU
EVGA GTX 1050 Ti SC

Motherboard
GA-F2A78M-DS2

RAM
8 Gb DDR3 1600MHz
or
12Gb DDR3 1333MHz

PSU
Some random 500W

Case
(I don't think this matters)

Storage
120Gb SSD, 500Gb HDD (I store everything to a cloud)

So, just to clarify, please could you tell me if I should get the Ryzen 3 2200G or the Ryzen 3 1200. I was thinking that the Ryzen 3 2200G would give me better performance with 2 monitors. Just in case you need to know, the monitors are both 1920x1080 and 60Hz.

Thank you for your time!

Also, I could overclock the CPU's for better performance. So I don't really care too much that the Ryzen 3 1200 runs at a slower clock speed, I could easily overclock to 3.7 or 8GHz. But I could too overclock the APU, I just don't know.

R3-1200, DDR4-3200MHz ram kit+a better PSU. On second thoughts, read through this thread and pass on the necessary information on this existing thread. It's possible we could suggest a better build.

Getting a gpu defeats the purpose of APU
Indeed r3 2200g performs a little higher than r3 1200 and a little cheaper, and I suggest you to get 2200g

But don't forget, you might need to update BIOS to run 2200g

I don't think you can run a multimonitor setup across the 2200G APU and a discrete GPU.
But your GTX 1050 Ti should have at least dual monitor outputs, so you can use that.

This. Use outputs from you discrete GPU, the GTX 1050 Ti for both of your monitors. You will not lose performance as such cards can easily handle multiple monitors.

You might even have to disable the integrated GPU on your CPU.
