get 3200 or ideally 3600mhz RAM.

gen3 NVME SSD would probably be ideal for a boot drive.

I'd look at the 5600 CPU also and get whichever is less costly. Ddr4-3600 memory is much better for a Ryzen build. Add a 1tb nvme gen 3/4 drive and you should be good.

Budget around 1000 euros, some startegy games(ck3,vic3, terra invicta, etc)

go for a 5600, see if you can go for a cheaper b550 board (im using the msi b500a pro and I got it for £100 i believe), 2x8gb of 3200mhz will be way better than 2666mhz and with the money saved you could go for 2x16gb if you really need but i'd go for a 6600xt/6700xt. since you're on a budget, a samsung sata ssd will be good to boot off. also, you dont have a case im assuming you have one?

yes i already have a case. Thanks for the answer i wil probably buy 2X16 and if i nedd to upgrade i will just buy two more

Which country are you buying in?

In general, ask yourself if you really need this motherboard. There are cheaper ones, which are still good. That money can be spent for CPU or GPU. Asus Prime isn't even that good in my opinion. Watch some Hardware Unboxed video. These variants are horrendous! Look out for MSI, Gigabyte or Asus TUF instead.

DDR4-3200/3600 shouldn't even be more expensive than 2666.

Depending on the productivity applications, if you can spare some money, two more cores might come in handy. So consider the 5800X, it's not that much more expensive.

Graphics card is totally fine for gaming but did you research enough to know, if it works well with your productivity apps?

I am buying in Portugal and yeah i will probably consider the ram and other motherboard.As for the graphics card I haven’t researched yet. Thank you so much for the feedback, it’s users like you that make reddit such a great place
