Bang for the buck are the 12400F and Ryzen 5600. Both are 6 core, 12 thread, and under £200. But Intel are launching their 13th gen CPUs which can also use DDR4, so you might want to be patient and wait for the 13400.
this is good information, i havent done any upgrades really in 5+ years as the machine runs spot on and does what i need it too. so i could hold out a bit longer, i do like Intel over amd, althugh i did have a thread ripper for a while and was impressed with it
