AMD has unfortunately a long history of abandoning products before its reasonable on its graphics division. Its not really acceptable, up until earlier this year my NAS/server was running a 3600 and its only for power saving purposes I changed that as its still a very workable CPU in that role.
Er I’m still running a FX-8350 as a gaming machine (not AAA games obviously). I had another one as a host for a few VMs and it was more than enough till the motherboard went. One day I’ll upgrade I guess.
I moved from an FX8350 to a R5 5600G a few years ago, having run it for about 9 years. Initially I didn’t think I’d notice much difference, but frankly it’s an entirely different ballgame.

Single core performance is niiice
Oh yeah I plan to update. But only when I really get annoyed.
