The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is the best CPU with integrated graphics. Graphics cards are hard to come by right now, so the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G's Vega-based integrated graphics could be a useful stopgap solution. While it won't be able to compete with many discrete GPUs, it should be sufficient for light gaming.

Ryzen 5 is a mid-premium processor with one exception. Before you get there, you should know that the R5 3500U is one of the most popular laptop processors.

Some of the best Ryzen 5 laptops use the same chipset and cost less than $40,000. It's a steal if you can get an R5 3500U laptop for under $40-45k.

The 4th Generation R5 4500U processor should technically compete with the Intel i5 10th Gen processor, but it also outperforms the Intel i7 10th Gen processor, which is available in laptops priced between $60 and $70k. So the R5 3500U is a good buy, but the 4500U outperforms everything.
