Also, same price on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0815XFSGK
Pair with a 6600 XT or Arc A750. The former has very mature drivers and consistent performance, the later has far better potential (beating a 3070 in some games), better features (encoding, AV1, XeSS upscaling), but the drivers are still being flushed out. If you plan on keeping the GPU for 5 years, get the A750.

CPU: 5600 or 5700x would be my 2 choices. The 5600 is the best bang for buck for gaming but the 5700x is a great choice if you plan to keep for 5 years.
GPU: 6700XT/6750XT kind of overkill or 6600XT/6650XT if you're on a tighter budget.
Mobo/RAM: You have tons of B550 to choose from unlike Intel where some cheap boards will throttle a 12400 or higher. 3200/cl16 16GB is dirt cheap for $40 but I'll opt for 3600/CL16 for about $57. You can also jump to 32GB capacity since DDR4 is eol.

Also the 5600 doesnt beat the 13400F in price to performance.

AMD may pull the carpet out from under folks with AM5 but that remains to be seen, and would be looked upon...unfavorably by the community, at least in theory. So if one doesn't already have a mobo I couldn't recommend Intel in good faith - tick/tock can get/fkkd.
