Based on all your needs, intel's IPC will gain a better advantage than Ryzen's 6c/12T.
Not to mention, you wouldnt need to purchase a dummy GPU and you will have your options open for trying our hackintosh.
This is coming from someone who owns a Ryzen PC.

Everything you told is correct.

I also watched benchmark. The difference is less.

But hackintosh is unstable in production. So we decided to invest in mac mini in future.

Because we need mac only for iOS development.
.
But currently we focusing only on Android

And we using only open source software like gimp, ink scape Linux is enough.

Android studio is not good in mac when compared to Linux

But difference between 2600x vs 8700 is also only 10-20% higher (in Intel).

But the price of 2600x is 18,700 but 8700 is 27000 in mdcomputers.in (40 %)

Oh thats fine then, I thought you were a freelancer/solitary developer, hence suggested hackintosh.
If you are a company, then its well and good to get yourself a proper mac mini

My config now

Ryzen 2600X
B450 TOMAHAWK
Nvidia gt710 (until gtx 2050)

Share your suggestions
AMD RYZEN 5 2600 6-CORE 3.4 GHZ (3.9 GHZ MAX BOOST) SOCKET AM4 PROCESSOR-15,000
MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC AM4 SOCKET MOTHERBOARD-13,000


Performance difference between 2600 and 2600X is negligible so get 2600 and save 3k which can be utilize in better mobo

The only discontent is monitor cost. LG 24MP88HV costs ₹.15,800. This stretching the budget... The monitor is great but I am thinking whether we utilise it's capability

Any alternative below 11k for 24"

660W output which should be enough unless doing extreme OC. Buy it offline because some people get older stock(8-9 months old manufacturing date) of UPS when buying online which means weaker battery as battery life decreases with time also if not used & just sitting there.

All wifi keyboards/mouse works via 2.4GHz wifi & comes with a small usb dongle which you insert in a usb port of desktop & after that it simply connects to keyboard/mouse.

Can I use that USB dongle to connect other devices like WiFi tethering from mobile!!!!?

No,it can only be used to operate the wireless kb/mouse that came with it.If you lose this wireless dongle then you can't even buy replacement(at least not at a lesser cost than buying a new wireless kb/mouse again).

TX550M is out of stock for a long time now,better get this:
POWER SUPPLY CORSAIR TX-M SERIES™ TX650M -650 WATT 80 PLUS® GOLD CERTIFIED

This is much better mobo than b450a pro.
MOTHERBOARD MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC

Buy that cabinet only if you don't plan to use after market cpu cooler in future.

Does wraith stealth cooler is enough for Ryzen 5 2600 if no overclocking?

Try 8GB RAM first I don't think you need 16GB RAM also currently price of RAM is very high and again you can add 1 more RAM later if needed and replace mobo with MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC

Gradle Build tool for Android recommends to allocate 4 GB space in RAM. And Android studio studio occupies 800 MB in RAM

Chrome occupies nearly 800 MB even for 4 tabs (need to be opened for program help)

Adobe XD and illustrator needs 800 MB space in RAM(need to be remain opened for parallel UI design along app development )

For custom Android rom building, 8 GB is minimum requirement..

And Windows 10 / Linux occupies at least 600 MB in RAM

So I think I need 16 GB.
.

What are the must to have important features available in MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC when compared with B450 A Pro (if no overclocking)

If this build continuously operates at ~100% cpu usage for long durations everyday then it will result in extra load on VRMs. A mobo with better VRMs(like pro carbon) will have lesser chances of failure & longer lifetime even beyond 3 years warranty period not to mention it keeps the option open for OC in future even if you don't need it now.

I think 16 GB RAM is necessary in your case. I find 8 GB to be sufficient for gaming. Even BF1 isnt RAM limited in 64 player servers but on my mac machine which in itself is very memory efficient, it crosses 8 GB in intensive build operations.
Great build, enjoy some tick tack later with a cherry mx blue mechanical keybooard.
