I'm looking for a processor that has integrated graphics and is compatible with a B550M motherboard. I don't want to spend a lot since I won't be using it for an extended time. My main concern is finding a processor that won't cause any BIOS compatibility issues.

If you're keeping an eye on your budget, the Ryzen 3200G is a good choice, especially if you can find it for around $25-30. You could also look for a Ryzen 4350G, which might be a bit pricier but worth it if you want something newer.
You should consider the Ryzen 5600G or 5700G for their solid performance. They're great options with integrated graphics that fit well with your needs.
You can't go wrong with any 5000 series APU; they'll fit in just fine with your B550M. Just a tip – my frame rates improved by about 10% when I switched to 3600MHz CL16 RAM with my 5600GT, so keep that in mind as APUs really benefit from good RAM timings!
Yeah, if you're looking for something newer, spending around $100 on the 5600G would also give you good value. It's the same as the 5500GT if you see those around.
