Ok my pc is now dying for good, 3 freezes on the last 12 hours and like 15 minutes of turning it on-off (at psu level) so the MB actually initializes (at cold start).

Sorry for the long post, I only try to make clear all the info I have so 1 post is enough and vague questions and misunderstandings are avoided.

Here is my final ask for advice:
----Ryzen 5 5500
prize 137€
cheapest MB -100€
Ram DDR4
----I3-12100f
Prize 123€
Cheapest DDR4 MB -100€
Cheapest DDR5 MB +200€
Specific Ram selected as place holder, I will get 16G minimum
Cheapest 8G DDR4 2666mhz 30€
Cheapest 8G DDR5 4800mhz 50€
AVX-512 most likely disabled.
what is the performance penalty then? (probably newer production and therefore totally disabled at hardware level)

12400f jumps +200€, so discarded (or maybe not, keep reading)

I only found one video about the R5 5500 on portugese it looks ok but I have no idea how the i3 will be affected by AVX512 being really disabled at hardware level. Performance on normal PC games is better on the Intel one, but what I want is RPCS3 not 30 FPS more on whatever modern pc game.
Im not sure if DDR5 is the good choice here, MB are super expensive and the future gen 13 compatibility is unknown, at least DDR4 can be carried over.
Probably the 12400f using DDR4 is a better choice than the 12100f with DDR5 at the "same" price, maybe for "future" upgrades to gen 13, because at least DDR4 will be still compatible.

Prize:
----
i3 12100f DDR4
+16€ (practically the same prize)
Ryzen 5 5500
+73€ (for me it is a hefty spike)
i5 12400f DDR4
+18€
Ryzen 5 5600
+12€
i3 12100f DDR5 (probably not the best option, yep i3 with ddr5 is more expensive than i5 using DDR4)
+++

The minimum I "need" is so at least I can replay MGS-IV but with a stable and better frame rate (no 4k or weird things).

The i5 12400f is looking more and more appealing, but the 5500 is a 6C 12T and cheaper (almost same prize as the i3) but the performance info with RPCS3 is vague, if the i5 is well worth those extra +70€ it should be the best hands down or the ryzen 5600?.


Thanks in advance.
