RE: NEED RECOMMENDATION ON ITX GPU

Hi Guys,

I'm intending to build an itx rig and had bought, planning to purchase the following items.
Needed recommendation on Graphic card for web browsing, simple editing of personal photos, viewing YouTube or video content at 4K.
Budget wise can stretch till around $400 to $500

CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 DIMM Ryzen Optimized (Bought)
Corsair SF Series SF750 80 PLUS Platinum High Performance SFX Power Supply (Bought)
Adata XPG SX8200 Pro PCIe Gen3x4 1TB (Bought)
3.5" HDD * 2 (REUSE)

Ryzen 3600 with Stock cooler (Planning to get from Shopee)
ASROCK X570 Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB3 (planning to get from Amazon SG)
M1 Ncase (Planning to preorder)

Graphic Card recommendation?
Card must not be longer than
Graphics Card Support
Cards 2.2 slots (45mm) or less:

Length: 317mm
Height: 140mm at mid-card, 130mm at rear corner, 125mm at front corner (if over 280mm long)
Cards over 2.2 slots (45mm):

Length: 280mm (with front I/O ports), 290mm (with front I/O ports removed)
Height: 130mm, 125mm at front corner (if over 280mm long)
Please allow 15-20mm for PCIe power connectors on GPU height limits

TIA

Only S$300+. Can find cheaper one in lazada.
Thanks Bro, will shortlist and read more :)

Just get the Ryzen 3400G
I actually had sold my 3600 and thinking of getting 3400G before, but specs comparison 3600 is much better than 3400G therefore I'm thinking of getting a graphic card.

I will be transferring Hugh files from my NAS and within the PC hard disk.
Will be settle Raid 1 for 3.5" HDD.

Will 3400G and 3600 makes a difference for files transfer?

For web browsing, simple editing of personal photos, viewing YouTube or video content at 4K.

Your usage is not demanding. 3400G with it's vega 11 integrated graphics is adequate. Also can save yourself the trouble of getting a discrete gpu what more still need to find one that can fit itx chassis.

3400G with integrated graphics also alot cheaper then getting 3600 + a separate discrete graphics. Can save money.

Web browse, edit photo, view youtube and video content at 4k 3400G with IGPU can handle already. Why want to go so much trouble to buy 3600? Unless you want to play game then I can understand if you want to buy 3600.

3400G with integrated graphics easy to fit inside itx chassis since no discrete gpu. 3400G was design for simple pc usage and also for simple esports gaming. Your usage looks to be ideal for 3400G. Note it is still a 4 core 8 threaded CPU.

3600 + discrete GPU will be better than 3400G with the trade-off being cost and space for the GPU.

I suggested 3400G based on your described usage as it suffices for 4K video.

As for file transfer speed, I've transferred TBs of stuff and the limiting factor has always been HDD cache and speed and not CPU speed. Perhaps it is different for NAS and RAID though you will have to ask someone else as I do not use either.
