Question Rate my £400 budget PC Prebuild

[MachineshopNW]

First ever build, after days of vigorous research I have compiled a list of components which I think could make an excellent entry - mid level gaming rig with all round use capabilities.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2400g
GPU: Integrated
RAM: Corsair vengeance 2 x 8gb 3000mhz (16gb total)
MOBO: MSI B450
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
SDD: KINGSTON 240gb
PSU: EVGA 500b

Please provide your opinions as to wether this is a viable setup. Mainly used for non AAA gaming and browsing. My budget is £400. Any input greatly appreciated or alternative suggestions.
Thanks in advance

Without a video card in the system, it's a low spec system for gaming. The Vega 11 graphics are around the nVidia 1030 level.

Hi, i suppose I intend to use the pc for games such as apex legends, rocket league, counter strike. The other things I would be doing is browsing and using computer aided design software.
I have seen similar setups running games such as battlefield 1 and far cry 5 on 1080 at low / med settings with stable fps.
I suppose my question is, would my build capably handle what i require it for?
I'm struggling to find an alternative that involves the price of a GPU within my budget that is better than vega 11.

Thanks man, don't know why I chose that particular board, after further research the asrock b450m pro4 is another viable option.

How I overlooked the Radeon RX 570 I don't know.
It's clear I jumped the gun a little, the extra investment to include this GPU is far worth the increase in game quality. Essentially turning a entry level rig to a mid for very little extra investment.
Thanks man.

Here's a revised plan of mine. I have the parts in my amazon basket right now coming in at £390.
I have seen the capabilities of using the ryzen 3 2200g alongside the rx570 and if it's capable of running the majority of games including newer titles on high settings at 1080 at 60fps then such quality is perfect for my needs, if not excessive.

Again I would like some feedback on this setup guys if you could spare a moment.

Seems a tad low however I believe these figures take into consideration such scores as value for money etc which is nothing to do with performance.

120gb ssd is a waste. It will fill out in no time. Also, that PSU is not good. Go with the setup in my earlier post or go with this...

I second the suggestion for more storage. At the absolute minimum a 240GB would likely be the lowest capacity you would want to consider at this point, and even that might get a bit tight once you start installing games. Things would be very cramped with a 120GB drive as your only storage, even if you intend to only keep a small number of games installed at any time. It's also best to not fill an SSD completely, as that can affect performance and their ability to perform wear-leveling.

Hi man, i plan to have 1tb western digital hdd also and was planning to just have the OS on the sdd and games storage on the hdd. Is this not advisable?

No, still not advisable. Especially an offbrand 3rd rate drive.
Many people want "just the OS" on the 120GB drive.

It never, ever ends up like that.
