Seeking advice on selecting AMD CPU

Hi all,

I'm searching technical information to build a new desktop PC

Configuration planned
=================
CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
RAM - Corsair 32GB Kit Vengeance DDR-4 3000MHz (2x16GB) SODIMM CMSX32GX4M2A3000C18
Hard Disk - Corsair Force Series Gen.4 PCIe MP600 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD

Motherboard board - still searching preferably ASUS mobo

Display - Dell 32" 4K U3219Q

Graphic comes from AMD CPU without graphic card

The new desktop PC shall be mainly for office use, including occasional 2D graphic editing (NOT 3D) but not for gaming.


Can AMD Ryzen 7 3700X cater those app's in the form of a GPU ?
Does AMD Ryzen 7 3700X have an iGPU ?

OS - Linux
Graphic Editing software - GIMP, Darktable etc.

Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Regards

The 3700X does not have a GPU, you will need a dedicated GPU.

Hi,

Thanks for your advice.

Can  AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G support dedicated GPU?  Thanks

But the new PC is for office use NOT for gaming.

The Ryzen 7 Pro 4750G has its own integrated GPU, but yes it can support a dedicated GPU as well, depending on the motherboard.

Hi,

Just made a search on Internet.

ASUS PRIME X570-PRO/CSM X570,AM4 Socket,Intel GbE Lan,USB3.2,PCIe 4.0 M.2 ATX M/B
supports AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G

Would there be an advantage having dedicated GPU? 
The new PC is for office use ONLY, plus occasional 2D graphic editing
Graphic editing software - mainly GIMP and Darktable

Only if those programs require a FirePro series card for certain features, like Adobe does.

Hi black_zion

I see.  Thanks

In case if I do 3D graphic editing, I just add an AMD FirePro graphic card.
