I am having a really tough time choosing my CPU and GPU. The r5 5600 (12.2k) is slightly worse than the i5 12400f (11k). However, AMD has a mid board for 4.3k (Asrock B450M) but Intel only provides a bad board (MSI H610M) for 6.5k. Also, there is the i5 11400f which is cheaper in both motherboard and CPU. I'm really confused on whether to go with AMD or Intel. In regards to the GPU, the RX 6600 is worse than a750 (imo). But the idle power draw on the a750 is really bad. a750 also offers AV1 encoding which might be useful for me. Also, I do not mind a bit of tinkering with intel GPU's too. I am also confused between RX 6600 and a750 (performance for power draw). I have provided the template down below so it is easier to understand my goals.
