While this could be a nice option for a system that would have to remain upgradable with new CPUs in the long term, without costing too much, AMD really took disastrous choices this time. They held back low wattage and X3D models, they haven't predicted the slow adoption of DDR5, they delayed a cheap chipset for the market after getting the first indications from motherboard makers of the pricing for the new AM5 motherboards. A620, non X and X3D CPU models should have been announced from day one.
