AM4 vs AM5 build? Is this change worth it?

AM4 vs AM5 build? Is this change worth it?

AM5 Build

AM4 Build

Hello, I have compared these two builds between AM4 (93k rupees or 970 USD) and AM5 (114k rupees or 1190 USD)

I generally do not believe I will be upgrading this PC, unless it gets broken or obsolete which I hope does not happen with the 5060, since I only want to play at 1080p.

Is the price difference here worth it for me to choose AM5?
Is there going to be a performance difference? I only want to game, 1080p AAA titles, no particularly CPU intensive tasks

Both are in my budget, but I'm cheap and want the best deal!
Thank youuu

Best CPU to pair with 5060 for 1080p AAA gaming

Hello,
I am Indian, so I'll cite prices in both INR and USD
I want to build a gaming PC, around 1,00,000 rupees (1042 USD)
I am sure I want to get a 5060 as my GPU, with 16 gigs of ram, but I'm very confused as to what CPU I want to get.

I was thinking Ryzen 5 5600 (12190 rupees/127 USD) for AM4
and Ryzen 5 9600X (21690 rupees/226 USD) / 7500F (15190 rupees/160 USD) for AM5

Should I go for AM4 or AM5? What does upgradability even mean for me, if I just build a balanced PC right now, and completely replace it when it gets obsolete?
Are any of these going to bottleneck the GPU? I wanna play on 1080p, but I also want to get the most bang for my buck
