Yes, the Ryzen 5 1600 remains a solid choice for 2023, offering strong performance for everyday tasks and light gaming.
Under $60 seems reasonable. [Note: This assumes the Zen+ 1600AF; the regular 1600 may struggle in many situations.] Consider a used Ryzen 5 3600 for a big improvement at a lower cost or a new 5600 for a major upgrade around $130. Edited January 31, 2023 by DonGirses
It seems your I5 4690K isn't up to the challenge of high-end games anymore.
