ryzen 1400 or ryzen 1600

[Federico_12]

Hi, I need help deciding which processor to buy if the ryzen 1400 or 1600, it is only to play, maybe record games with the OBS or play and leave the internet open. I live in Argentina and the difference between these 2 processors is $ 1000, about 65 dollars but I'm wrong. Both I'll run with a b350m, 8gb ram (2x4) at 2800mhz and I have a rx 480. greetings and thank you

If it was my system, id go for the 1600 and make myself a little bit future proof, id also grab 16gb of ram rather than 8gb, more and more game titles are requiring 16gb as recommended now, 8gb as minimum.

Get the 1600, it will perform better when multitasking such as playing games and recording/streaming. Also more and more games make good use of multiple cores.

the 1600 has higher clock speed n is useful in gaming+streaming scenarios. it also houses a beefier cooler than the 1400. like the others said, it ought to be more future proof too. 8 gb of ram is fine as of now for 1080p gaming. even gta v uses like 3.5 gb ram usage in 1080p high settings.
