If you manually overclock/tweak the hell out of a 5600x and leave the 5600 stock, you might be able to get 10-12% more performance in certain workloads. None of these chips have a ton of overhead.
Or put your money toward a 5700x ($175 at MC right now) or 5800x, B550 and a cheap/stock cooler for $300 and have way more performance than the tweaked out $400 5600 setup.

If you are buying a new motherboard, then I really recommend against that. A320 motherboard has a good chance of being old with an old BIOS that doesn't work with 5000 series. The CPU won't boot. You would need to borrow an older CPU to boot and then update the BIOS and then put in the new 5600.
If you only want a low cost office PC, then a 520 chipset is newer. And for the lowest cost, I would get the 5600G, so you don't have to buy a graphics card as you would for the 5600 here.

In my opinion, this chip should be paired with a MSI or Gigabyte Aorus B450 board or a B550 board. The reason for suggesting MSI or Aorus is because they both have CPU-less flashing, meaning that even if you get old stock with an old BIOS, you can update the board to support the 5000 series CPUs. B550 is better, and not much more. Even with these, there is a chance you could get an old BIOS, but I think it is less likely than with B450.
In my opinion, B320 and B520 are better for pairing with a xxxxG CPU. Those are the low cost boards good for low cost integrated graphics chips. If you can afford a discrete GPU card, you can afford to get a better motherboard, not to mention that you will likely want the better VRM to power those GPU boards.
