It's a good intro build that will handle those games fine, and the freesync on the monitor will be nice. When you want to upgrade down the road, just toss in a graphics card and you're good to go.

It has the opposite of dedicated; integrated. The CPU and GPU are on the same physical chip (no actual graphics card). That being said, it's several times better than Intel's equiv. The 2400G has 11 Vega cores, so you could say it will have roughly 1/5 the performance of a Vega 56.
It can only use 2GB of memory, but with the relatively limited power of the chip, it's not really a bottleneck. It's good for gaming at 1080p (will be high settings on those games), and like I said the freesync really helps compensate for any frame drops. It's shit in comparison to a 1070, but that's a $500 GPU right now.
If you have another couple hundred to spend, I can edit to build to accommodate a graphics card, but at this price point I don't think it would be worth it to buy like a 1050 or 1060 3gb, as they will not be much of an upgrade from the Vega gfx.
Another thing you can save some money on is forgoing one of the hard drives. You didn't specify if you need real storage space (HDD) or if you're just gonna load games/programs on SSD and save files on an external.

I probably would need some kond of storage. If i plan to stream a bit for video editing purposes?
Like i said minor on the streaming part for now.

Ah ok, so with the Ryzen a gcard isnt really needed unless i wanna go all out?

Correct. The 2400G is aimed at gaming on a budget. If you're curious on how it performs in the real world, take a look at this video: https://youtu.be/FntY5rYR4cE

the 2400G should be pretty good for older games, and even newer titles on low settings, but i think u can get alot better preformence for 1100 budget

u could get a 4-6 core cpu + 1050 ti and spend the rest on glass panel, led lights and stuff, or u could try to get maximum preformence for ur money
