On Newegg the price for the 2400g is $160, the 2700 is $270 - $10 promo code. 8gb DDR4 is $50. Would you pay $220 for $150 worth of differences?
Ryzen 7 better fit for long CPU intensive tasks like video editing. Still good value!
Reasoning:
For 1080p gaming, the Ryzen 5 is no slouch (~10,000 Passmark cpu score) and 8GB system ram is enough. Same video card. You can always add another 8GB later for about $50 if the need arises. In this scenario, I'd buy the Ryzen 5. In most games at 1080p, you probably won't notice the difference between the systems, as the bottleneck would be the videocard, not the CPU.
The Ryzen 7 2700 processor is about 50% faster than the Ryzen 5 2400G. If you do a lot of cpu intense stuff like video editing that can literally take the computer hours to complete the task, then I would go for the Ryzen 7 version to save time.
Here's an example of similar build of the $529.99 version that comes out to around $700 after rebate hassle.

If there's a store near him he just needs to take the receipt to coustomer service and do it. I dont think they do that through the phone
These offer amazing value at their respective prices. I tried building similar specs over the weekend and these pre-built were around $200 cheaper.

Thank you. Which version would you purchase? Is the Ryzen 7 build worth the extra costs ?

Ok thanks.
The argument revolving around the 2400G cuts both ways:
The 2400G only has 8x PCI lanes through which to talk to a dedicated video card, instead of 16x on the non-G variants. It would likely be hard to tell any impact outside of synthetic benchmarks though.
On the flip side, if your RX580 suddenly dies one day, you can switch over to the integrated 'G' graphics and still have a usable computer while you remedy the situation.
I read in another thread the game codes were tied to the video card and cannot be used on other cards. Can someone confirm this?
