You can also buy a used 5xxx CPU and drop it into your current board. They aren’t terribly expensive on the used market. Check out the 5600 and 5600X.

Just make sure you update your bios first. A bunch of boards need it to run 5xxx chips.

Any invaders in that tree line are likely having a very bad time continuing their invasionary goals.
