I am building a AMD based am4 system.

Please suggest chipset to select and cpu

i am able to find ryzen 1400 on ali express at 62$
ryzen 1600 on ali express at 88$
ryzen 2600 on ali express at 125$

i want to go with rx 580 on such chispet which is future proof for 3rd gen for later cpu upgrade

rx580 + ryzen 1400 + suggest chipset ?
rx570 + ryzen 1600 + chipset ?
gtx 660 (my current gpu ) + ryzen 2600 + chispet ?


chipset should support oc as i have coolermaster hyper 212 air cooler

please suggest i am also in to streaming games like dota 2

It's all wrong, best GPU deserves best CPU but if you don't have any other choice, rx570 + ryzen 1600 on a MB with b450 chipset, as for CM 212 Evo you would need to get AM4 mounting kit. You also need DDR4 RAM, at least 2x8GB, 3000 - 3200 MHz.
just focus on gaming here with rx 580 8gb with b450 mobo and 3200mhz ram 16gb which cpu would do most value in least price keeping in mind 3600 upgrade after an year or so

cpu options 1400, 1500x , 1600 , 1600x , 2600

1400 , 10000 pkr or 65usd
1500x, 12500 pkr or 79 usd ( very close to 1600 price not worth i guess 1600 better)
1600, 14000 pkr or 88 usd
2600, 20000 pkr or 125 usd ( double the price of 1400 )

I can go with 2600 but with gtx 660 which not making sense , 1400 or 1600 with rx 580 which would be best ? i will be upgrading to 3600
