Hey everyone! I'm currently using an Intel i7 4790 paired with a GTX 1070 8 GB. I'm thinking about upgrading my CPU, motherboard, and RAM. I found this bundle that includes a Ryzen 5 5600GT, an A320M motherboard, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM for €165. I'm also considering a similar deal for a Ryzen 5 4500. Which option do you think is better? Thanks!

That's a great upgrade, but consider the Ryzen 5 5600 if you can. It has 32MB of cache which can improve performance. Just remember you can disable prefetch in the BIOS for better efficiency!
Honestly, this combo is fine! I'm running an AM4 setup with an MSI B550m and a Ryzen 7 5700X. Both CPUs you mentioned are decent, but the 5600GT is generally better overall.
If you can find a deal on an X-series CPU, I'd recommend it. The GT version has half the L3 cache compared to Ryzen X CPUs, but if budget is your concern, the 5600GT is still a good choice.
Starting a whole new build might be ideal, but I get that you're working with a budget. If you have to stick with your current setup, I'd say the 5600GT is a solid upgrade compared to what you have. It should work well for your needs!
