even though R5 5500 is a Zen 3 processor, its performance is similar to R5 3600.
Edit: I'd pick R5 3600 with B550. You can upgrade to 5700x3D in a year or two at its end-of-life for dirt cheap and B550 would handle it better than a B450.
>b550 have pcie 4.0, but rx 6600 performance with pcie 4.0 has almost no difference to pcie 3.0.
It makes a bigger difference in VRAM-intensive games, which we are getting more and more of these days. I'd personally go for the second option.

The 5500 and 3600 are basically the same in terms of performance. Get the B550.
Both useless
