Want to build a gaming pc with the budget of 550 dollar's. should I go with the ryzen 5 2400g and upgrade to a dedicated gpu later. Or go for a dedicated cpu and gpu build (if this option then which cpu and gpu). ??

This is sufficient for Fortnite. When you can afford to, upgrade to a Ryzen 3700, a discrete graphics card, and an SSD for better gaming and all around usage.

guys your all paying way too much for stuff you can get for cheaper see this:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yxnZMZ

8gb of ram should be enough if you wont be streaming or something like that I know some games its like 2 need more than 8gb of ram but its just not worth it for now you can go with an rx 580 and grab 16gb if you want just like here:

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XWnZMZ

I know its a bit over 550$ its just 27$ over the price But I promise you you should be able to get around 75 to 85fps on 1080p on high settings

this website isnt 100 percent accurate but it could give you a idea:
https://www.gpucheck.com/gpu/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1660/amd-ryzen-3-2200g/high?lang=en&currency=usd

RX580:
https://www.gpucheck.com/gpu/amd-radeon-rx-580/amd-ryzen-3-2200g/high#mainads

I would recommend getting the 1660 build because your not gonna need 16gb of ram if your not gonna stream

the 1660 is way way way more powerful than the vega 11 and rx570

its a bit better than an RX590

use the website on the reply above to take a look on your 2200g 1660 combo on games its not 100 percent accurate bt it should give you and idea of how good something is basically 80 percent accurate
