My opinion here on the budget CPUs:
4500: Not great, not horrible, equivalent to a Ryzen 2600.
4600G: Okay if you need an iGPU, the 5600G is a much better all around processor.
5500: Acceptable, equivalent to a 3600. PCIe 3 only. Board manufactures are slow to support this one.
5600: The one to get. It's a very slightly slower clocked 5600x.
5600G: Basically a 5500 with an iGPU. If you only do light gaming, this is a fine option.
5700x: If you need that extra two cores... Which hardly anybody does.

Intel board selection and pricing at Microcenter is a bit underwhelming even with the $20 off. Best as an upgrade
i3-10105: A good upgrade for LGA1200 Pentiums. The secondary and refurbished market is full of i3 chips and systems right now, however.
i5-10400: It's a better option than the 4500, really great deal at $95.
i5-11400: Some improvement over previous gen, paying for PCIe 4 mostly.
i5-12400: Best Intel value, beats the 5600x.

Edit: You're going to spend a bit more than $60; but MSI B660/M-A Pro boards are in and out of stock starting at $119.99 after the $20 discount. These are considered some of the better values for a 12th gen Intel board.
Just to clarify everything, there are $50 coupons for:
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
Intel Core i7-12700K
Intel Core i9-12900K

For every other processor, you can use a $25 coupon. These two coupons cannot be stacked. However, the $20 mobo/cpu combo discount will stack with either coupon.

I linked it in the original post, unsure if it still works or not but that one was only for specific CPUs.

Usually how long before you get the coupon. I signed up about 15 minutes ago.

It took me 4 hours to get to the code. I also had signed up for the free SSD previously with that phone number.

The $50 coupon makes the 12700k awfully tempting. I was planning on going with the 12700, because I'm not going to OC. But if the prices are this close…

From my experience last time with 5600X, yes, it should.
