I’d go for the 5600g, particularly if you’re planning to play games or upgrade a graphics card later. It’s only a bit more expensive—around $30 USD in the US—compared to the 4600g. The 4600g has less cache overall because it’s just one part of many.

The 5600G offers greater cache, a higher base clock speed, and improved single-thread performance. In short, you’d likely choose it for just $20 more, depending on your budget.

I’d go ahead then—are you setting up an iGPU build? If you’re aiming for a GPU, I’d choose the 5600. For even more iGPU power, the 5700G is better since it includes an additional GPU core (Radeon Vega 7 vs Vega 8).

Are you assembling a computer? Or do you already have some components? Budget? Country? Intended use? About 5600g seems quite limited—you could save around $30 by choosing a 5500 instead and getting a used RX 570/80 for $40-50 (4GB) or $60-80 (8GB). That would give you better performance than even the best GPU overclocking with 2400-2500 MHz and ~4600 dual-rank DDR4.
