I'm wondering, when building a new system with Ryzen processors, which approach makes more sense? Should I go for the latest generation or the previous one? What are the key points to consider for price-performance balance? Can I get a general strategy recommendation, especially for those on a budget?

For a tight budget, a Ryzen 5 5600 (or 5600X if you can find it at a reduced price) is already an excellent choice: it's powerful enough for gaming and works well with affordable B550 motherboards. If you're building a new PC this year, compare the prices of Ryzen 7000 (e.g., 7600) with the ongoing deals on the 5000 series—often, the price difference isn't justified for 1080p gaming.
