If you can wait, spend a bit more for an 8600G. Its $189 now but may drop back down (or go on sale) for $169. I feel like that would be a better value.

But to recommend the 8600g in this instance is so nonsensical. New motherboard, new Ram, In a sense, a new setup and you might as well go on a pc parts picking.
If you are on a tight budget and stuck on the am4 platform and don't have or need for a dedicated gpu buy a 5700g instead. If you have a dedicated gpu just buy the 5600x or ryzen 5 x3D version, You won't need anything more above that to squeeze in any value on am4.

I am afraid to think what CPU one may be on for a 5700G to be an upgrade. I am a frugal guy, but if one's budget is so tight that this would be an upgrade, I'd save the money for the bare necessities and would invest my time and effort into improving my lot in life.

This is the best apu that you can buy for the AM4 platform, which is way more common and way cheaper, especially "used".
