Hankerz recommended users of the R5 5500

Recommended for begginer-ameture creators with slightly strict budget, we recommend starting with RTX 3050 aligned with the R5 5500.

We also recommend buying a mid-range motherboard to be able to change the processor in the future in case you want extra processing power, Thanks to the AM4 socket you have a bunch of options to upgrade on the same socket and choose the GPU that matches your upgrade budget.
