That looks like a great price performance deal. But... I used to build all my computers and it was pretty straightforward. Now I have to be sure I match the CPU to the motherboard and the RAM. And the power supply.

I know, it should be stupid simple, but getting the parts from Newegg is just not as assured as it used to be.

In the last few years, I have just bought "refurb" computers (Dell, mostly) with 16G RAM for around $120 shipped. I can expect that everything is in order and I won't have to spend energy getting a motherboard, CPU, and RAM working together. And the total price is lower.

I salute those who continue to build new machines from parts, and those may be the best performers for those who need that level. But I am going to buy refurb machines with low prices and (by older standards) great performance.
So you were putting Pentiums in AMD motherboards before?

I was just talking myself into the 5500 at $86, now this drops to $72! Stressful for a bargain hunter!

As an alternative, you can pick up used 3500s for $56 off AliExpress and get PCIe 4.0 support with it and get generally better performance.

it's only 15$ diffence, for something you will use for a long time.

Just spend 15$ don't be stingy unless you absolutely don't have or want to spend the money

Some people haven't been around that long to realize the 321-pin socket 7 can take AMD or Intel Pentium processor.

Building a pc is easier than ever before. There's some nuance sure, but not like there never was in the past.
