I've been looking at a build with a R7 5700g + X570 board and it only ends up being $30 more than this. Any reason I shouldn't go with that combo over this one? My reasoning for the 5700g would be...

Correct. This is what looks like a mainstream gaming setup, that would pair well with a med end gaming gpu. If you were to jump to a 5800x, I rather suggest putting even a little more money toward...

It's not a guarantee though. Unless the B550 board has a sticker that says 'Ryzen 5000 ready'
most likely it will need up update.
Amazon review says it needed to update bios to make it work. If...

I got a B450 Tomahawk with bios flashback (small button on back panel) to update bios.
Only B550 and up had was the Pcie 4.0 upgrade and it had really no advantages in gaming.
And you need storage...

B550 supports ryzen 5000 series out of the box. B450 however would need a bios update before hand.

So there is no point to get a 5800X which is about $120 more expensive than the 5600X, and there is no point to get a X570 for the 5X00X because of little room to over clock? Thanks

I'm running my 5600x on a B450. So the B550 will work fine.

I don't think this is a great deal, especially with all the sales on the 5600X that we've seen. I know not everyone has a Microcenter near them, but you can get a combo with an X570 board for less...

B550 is fine for a 5600x or any in the 5000 series ryzen. The bios was intended for these series and you would likely need the usual updates once you are set.
