Any Ryzen 7800/8800/8900 series APU miniPC will bring you close to PS5 performance. Frequently sold around $300-400, with 16-32GB RAM.

…none of the processors you list seem to exist? The only “7800” ryzen is the 7800X3D which retails for more than that by itself, let alone in a complete system, and I highly doubt you mean the A10 7800 which is over a decade old. No AMD CPU or APU that I can find has ever been branded as 8800 or 8900.
The closest and highest end match to any of those numbers, the 8700G, falls well short of a PS5. There’s no way it counts as close unless you’re talking astronomical scales and “within an order of magnitude” is considered “close”. The iGPU on the 8700G being a newer architecture than the RDNA2 in the PS5 doesn’t make up for the fact that the PS5 has three times as many compute units.

Which part of "series" did you miss?
You want a specific model? 8945HS. There you go. Mini PCs as cheap as $400 with that one.

Alright, my bad, though you still haven’t provided a link to any of these.
Also, from what I can see that 8645HS iGPU does not match a PS5 in performance and has exactly the same iGPU as the 8700G. It’s not even close to a PS5’s performance.
