Adobe tools remain strongly tied to Intel, isn't it? It's not something I'm very familiar with. For pricing details, let me know your country so I can provide more relevant information.
Asrock B450M Pro priced around 69 USD, R5 3600 near 195 USD, I5 10400 at 184 USD.
Absolutely, it's a great choice—more affordable and performs better than the traditional steel version.
There are several components that contribute to a CPU, such as the FPU, IPC, cache design, etc., but B series boards restrict RAM speeds which can impact the 10400's performance while the 3600 offers higher IPC. In the end, their results will be quite similar.
They use completely different designs, so you shouldn't judge them by their clock speeds.
