SD card, sure.

Old phone charger? Might not be strong enough to power a Pi 4/5; this isn’t the Pi 3 days with a microUSB.

“… and I’ve got a 3D printer.“

Yeah, you’re “ahead” of most people with that one.

This i5 could probably handle it, and you’ve got $$$ left over for an SSD.

Go with the 8500 i5 instead. I have that with a 1650 for the kids.

Agreed.

Was proving that you can find a half way decent machine that’s more capable than a Pi5 at the same price point (~$100)

Oh yea! Even that 6500 with a 1050 or even a 1030 crushes a PI. I have 4 1030s laying around for such an occasion.
