So with this you would just need the power supply?

If you added the optional 5700G, you will also need to add a hard drive / ssd.

I can't seem to find anything on MSI's website that says this combo comes with a power supply, I must be blind. If it does come with a power supply what wattage is it?
Thanks for the help!

I have another case, so seems B550M Pro Wifi + Ryzen 7 5700G for $200 is a quite good deal for me, thanks.

He'll also need a windows license and a gpu if he plans on playing any modern games on decent settings.

They include the PSU on the photo when the combo has it. https://us-store.msi.com/Motherbo...3?limit=24 I don't think this one has a PSU.

Would this

B550M Pro Wifi + Forge 100R Mid-Tower Case - $120 [msi.com]
Optionally, add the 5700G for an additional $145

make for a good upgrade for my htpc setup? My current setup is like 12yrs old, but does house a evga 1060 gpu and a newer 600w psu already. I should be able to just swap over my gpu, psu, hdd and be up and running, right?

Better deals out there for upgrading a htpc setup (only used to stream 4k movies with madvr tone mapping on a projector)?

Thx


*edit...

I suppose this plus a 16gb memory for $30 would be a better deal for my needs...right?

If you have an existing case, PSU, and GPU. Then probably just go for the $200 bundle: B550M Pro Wifi + Ryzen 7 5700G and add ram.

Doesn't sound like you need a new case.

Do all the parts already come preinstalled or do you have to install it yourself?

IMO, don't even get the 5700G if you already have a GTX 1060. Just get the 5600/5500 from like amazon. Unless you specifically need the 5700G?

5600

https://www.amazon.com/AMD-5600-1...C92&sr=8-3

5500

https://www.amazon.com/AMD-5500-1...C97&sr=8-1

cheaper than the $145.

so things that you will need to buy to complete the build if you buy the full bundle including the processor

PSU
GPU (optional if you want to play better graphic games)
Hard drive
heatsink fan/cpu cooler
Windows 11

Am I missing anything else?

Ram.

The CPU should include a cooler. The case has two front fans and one rear exhaust fan. I think that's a good baseline to start with (I like to add two exhaust fans in the top if a case supports it).
