Such a set is necessary for me.
AMD’s CPU support in Linux is disgustingly lax, so if you want, for example, functional power management and the resulting silence, you want an older generation. Besides, all current processors have enough performance for me.
I’m working on a Ryzen 3 Pro 5450U with three monitors. The processor was released in March 2021, it was fully supported in Ubuntu only in 22.10 (into which the kernel bubbled I think from the spring of 22, so it took AMD a year to ensure support in the kernel). Until then, the laptop was practically unusable, the battery lasted a little over an hour and the fan was running almost at full capacity.
I have plenty of power. Actually, about half of the processor would be enough for me, i.e. two cores.
