Pre 2010 games shouldn't have any problems (except Crysis and few PC melting games). I used to play 2005 NFS Most wanted on an old Thinkpad with 1GB DDR2 ram and Intel GMA965 IIRC.

ryzen 3600--16k
asrock B450 Pro 4--7k
*www.primeabgb.com/online-price-rev...2x8gb-3600-mhz-ddr4-memory-f4-3600c18d-16gvk/
Corsair CX550 psu--4.4k
*www.amazon.in/Corsair-Carbide-CC-9011075-WW-Computer-Included/dp/B00RORBQNW

ssd prices increased this year by as much as 30-40% so avoid buying at these prices unless absolutely necessary. @SaiyanGoku will a 240gb ssd be enough for mentioned games & other software because in that case I think it is better to go with small size cheap dram-less ssd for now & wait for ssd prices to come down next year to buy a good ssd.

For old games, that is more than enough but I have no idea about those softwares.

Those aren't worth it, as said by Goku. The R5 2400G based rig I suggested is good. Its price can be reduced further by replacing PSU to Corsair CX550 (4.5k).

If you still want one, go with what bssunil suggested.

I suggested AsRock mobo because it is a great motherboard for a cheap price, if you can find one. You can go for Gigabyte B450 DSH3 for 6.5k or something, inferior board with inferior VRMs, but won't matter for R5 2400G.

Ok i will buy dongle.

Actually, I decided, no need for gaming. That the minus. But essential is web browsing, downloading, watching full HD movies, Run MultiSim , Comsol, Siemens PLC software, Video editing and MS Office.

R5 3600 doesn't have an integrated GPU like i5 9400 or 9600K (Intel's F CPUs lack iGPUs as well, like i5 9400F & i5 9600KF). So you need a dedicated GPU for the system to boot. If you can buy a cheap used GPU, that will work as even something like used GTX 1050 for under 5k is much more powerful than iGPUs of CPUs.
