Currently have this in mind.

AMD Ryzen 5 1400 1600 - 16500,
Asus Prime A320-Plus Asus Prime B350 Plus -8000 ,
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB 16 GB 3000 Mhz -10500

Please suggest advantages of 1500 and 1600 over 1400. And motherboard A320 vs A350.

Won't overclock, ever, so no overclock processors/motherboards.

RAM I can get another 8GB module later if I need.

Will add more requirement, conditions later if needed.

Since I will probably be using this PC for 7+ years, I decided to get the 1600 ( not the 1600X because I won't overclock ) and also a single 16 GB module so that I can upgrade to 32 GB or even more later.

Wishlist as of 2017-10-14

AMD RYZEN 5 SERIES HEXA CORE PROCESSOR 1600 - WITH WRAITH SPIRE COOLING SOLUTION (AM4 SOCKET, 19MB CACHE, UP TO 3.6 GHz)

ASUS MOTHERBOARD ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING (AMD SOCKET AM4/RYZEN SERIES CPU/MAX 64GB DDR4-3200MHZ MEMORY)

CORSAIR DESKTOP RAM VENGEANCE SERIES - 32GB (16GBx2) DDR4 DRAM 2666MHz WHITE LED (CMU32GX4M2A2666C16)

Regarding ram see this:
Urgent:New Office Workstation for Architectural Big rendering

If you want ability for future upgrades then B350 is better option but if you are sure about not wanting extra ports/slots/usb3gen2 in future then get A320.

P.S.There is no A350 mobo,only B350.

Another late edit, waswaiting for the i5 8th gen but will stick to Ryzen considering prices, but i still have to wait for the purchase for personal issues.

Came across this motherboard which I think would be a good addition to my Air 240 cabinet,

ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING | Motherboards | ASUS India

This along with the Ryzen 5 1600 Wraithe Spire Cooler with LED RGB Ring.

And consdering LED RAM as well but they're really overpriced at this moment, was thinking of going for 16 GBx 2 but now might have to settle for 8 GB x2.

CORSAIR DESKTOP RAM VENGEANCE SERIES - 32GB (16GBx2) DDR4 DRAM 2666MHz WHITE LED (CMU32GX4M2A2666C16)

Any thoughts ?
