Hi guys and girls
Looking for a bit of advice for a limited budget build mainly geared towards graphics design/drawing I guess is what you'd call it.
My brother has decided he wishes to purchase a hueion 13 Pro drawing tablet but requires a budget rig to run it. He initially looked at a laptop but sub £300 won't really suffice his needs
I've thought he's probably best on the AMD side due to the image editing, maybe something along the lines of a last gen ryzen 2600x or maybe even 2700??
What motherboard would be the best bang for buck budget board under £100 probably closer to £50-£70, I've thought about the asrock b450m? This is the biggest hurdle I'm not an AMD guy
Im excluding graphics cards just now as he's not going to game and would be fine on the on board to start off with or can use my old nvidia if required until his budget rebuilds
Ram any generic 3600mhz sticks about 16gig will do so I can source them and I'm going with something like a seasonic 500w psu, case isn't an issue and peripherals/screen as hell use the 50" TV
I guess what I'm asking is what system would you build for me with a limit of around £400
Thanks
