What’s your budget? I would recommend an Intel 7th Generation or above i5 series.

Ok, you can get i7-8700 which is 8th gen and any 300 series chipset motherboard. Since you also want to get RAM I found a good motherboard which offers all your needs at a lower cost which is the [SIZE=4]MSI H310M PRO. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=4]I think that you are not into overclocking so both the CPU and mobo is not overclocking friendly if you wanna overclock then get i7-8700K and any Z370 chipset motherboard.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=4]And for RAM get Corsair [SIZE=4]VENGEANCE® LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz which will be a bit more than you budget if so just get one 8GB stick.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

I would suggest ryzen

Yeah RYZEN is also a great choice.
