I have a Ryzen 7 2700G in my DeskMini, but that one is 2 (?) generations ago. Still, can play almost all games in 3440x1440 at medium settings.
In case you have seen my “string and tape” case mod to fit the cooler, that was done to support Turbo for video recoding. Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 fits nicely.

Knowing the usefulness that we’ve gotten at our house out of having them, I would probably say if I didn’t have the PS5 I would get a steam deck at this point. A refurbished one from valve when they’re on sale would be my pick. Plus, it works on my 20 year catalog of games.
