Question from dbdav117 : "Motherboard and ram compability"

amd ryzen 5 1400 processor What motherboard and ram would work

For Ryzen 5 1400 I think Msi b350/b450m gaming pro . And for RAM go with Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDr4 2x8GB 3000MHz you can go with 8GB only too.

Can i switch my AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor with an Intel i5 @ 3.2 GHz

Not without switching the motherboard as well. A motherboard works with either AMD or Intel CPUs, not both. Even then a motherboard will only work with certain Intel or AMD CPUs of a certain generation.
