I chose the Ryzen 7 5700g because I don't use any dedicated GPU. With this, the integrated GPU is better than Intel's integrated GPU, so I'm opting for the R7. However, anyone using a dedicated GPU should choose the Intel i5 13400, as it's the best option.

Why? The 5700g price is $150 and the 13400 - $230, and 13400F - $200. Too much.
