The iGPU in this is vastly superior to any iGPU from Intel currently available, but that doesn't make much difference if you're making use of the 3060. If you pull the 3060 for another computer, the 5600G leaves you with a little PC that can still actually game at 1080p. Current AMD integrated graphics are impressive.

Any suggestions?
I just built two rtx 3000 series PC's, one for myself(intel 10700k) and one for my graduating daughter (Ryzen 5 5600x) both using asus prime motherboards, and essentially identical ram/nvme setups.
While AMD may be winning in multi-threaded applications, they REALLY farking suck when it comes to drivers and compatibility. There have been so many stupid little tweaks and testing i've had to make in BIOS to achieve reliable performance and stability. Just trying to make sure both PC's run the same games reliably for hours as a testcase, the AMD was the pain the ass.
Intel, just switch on XMP in bios. Done.
It really reminded me of all my years fighting with Radeon graphics cards and drivers or even worse my athlon xp (2500?). It's ironic that AMD has made a chipset so powerful. tweakable, and optimizable that consoles decided to go with them, where the simplicity of a console relies on you turning it on and it just works, AMD has been the exact opposite experience for me.
Reviews will also act like Ryzen's aren't the heat monsters that Intel has produced for the last couple years which is also untrue, with identical 240mm AIO's the Ryzen has a noticeably worse range of thermals.
Just know your user and use case I would say. If you like to tweak and optimize for maximum fps, Ryzen may be more up your alley, if you don't want any fuss or hassle, Intel was easy sailing.
I've been thinking about upgrading, and here is an interesting comparison chart to the GTX1060 https://gpu.userbenchma
also, this comparison to the 3070 shows that 3070 is a significant step up in performance. https://gpu.userbenchma

Linux dudes always seem to be building pros who like really specific hardware in their rigs. These GPU times are tough though!
But that's awesome and thanks for the reply. I wish you a great day. 😊

By the way, I'm a windows dude. Try Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix. It's highly usable for a pro Windows user. Server developments are better done in Linux as when you try to mass implement it, you don't have to worry about license fees. I have some old hardware that Intel's windows driver won't give me 4k but Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix works at 4k out of the box.
Linux is software tinkering. It doesn't have to imply the love for hardware tinkering. Some tinkerers do both, but it's up to the individual.

The HP OEM 3060 has a decent heatpipe cooler (copper heat pipes, aluminum fins), with adequate 2mm thermal pads that do cover the memory chips just fine.
It's 100% not bottom of the barrel, and probably just about identical to an EVGA single fan version of the card.
