you need to take a look at what these are going for today...or their comparable products, and then ask for about 50% of that. the 5600X has essentially been supplanted by several other 5600 variants that have lower prices than what the 5600X is / would go for. another problem is that even though AMD is still releasing AM4 parts, AM4 is dead end and essentially been re-tasked as their budget solution as it's still pretty decent overall.

I know it will hurt...I paid $500 for a 5600X 3 years ago and then sold the system it was in for $750.00 about a year ago...5600X, Hyper 212, 32GB DDR4-3600, 2x 1TB NV1 SSD, GTX 970 in a Define Mini with Corsair RX 650. OUCH!!! :(
 
5600x bnib can be seen on sale for 200 today

X570 provides nothing extra over a B550 for a setup like that which means looking at B550 pricing there is a wide range around 130-150 that functionally would be identical

65 for new 500GB m.2

16GB ram maybe 45ish

Basically I could walk into memex and build something functionaly identical today brand new for 440ish. Add on the used depreciation... and the ram that will be hard to find a matching pair to bump to 32GB...

South of 400 is what I'd probably expect to see if I was selling it myself given the above.
 
5700X3D + GB B550 Gaming X V2 + GSkill Ripjaws V 32GB memory @ 3200 CL16 combo is $400 before tax at CC right now. So for ~$510 (including a 500GB SSD), I get a X3D machine. Unless the X570 board you got can do 16x -> 8x/8x split, then there's no advantage over a B550.

There's also a 5600X combo with the same RAM but a crappier Asus Prime B550M-A motherboard for $300 before tax. But for budget gaming, it's a fine combo. So basically you are going to be going up against these type of combo.

I find it kind of funny that the 5600x set up is still decent for most gaming all a person needs is a decent - half decent GPU even a 6600xt would be fine for most games 1080p-1440p the funny part if that people will still go out and pay top dollar for newer cpu motherboard ram combo thinking it's going to be a huge increase of playability and most games it isnt or is little more so they drop the prices of the 5600s and mb combo and still up he prices of the newer shiny cpu mb ram combo

buying the best now ensures your system will stay relevant for longer than if you buy yesterdays tech. but yes...AM4 is still very potent. the same can be said for Alder Lake too, though.
