A few questions for my first build

The Ryzen 5 1400 may have higher performance in games than the locked i5-7600 and it's a more futureproof platform. For £40 more, you can also get the Ryzen 5 1600 which is a 6 core / 12 thread CPU compared to Intel's 4 core / 4 thread ones. That would most likely beat the i5.
