For a tiny fee of about $55, you would get a decent-ish CPU that had a decent-ish iGPU within. All you had to do next was find a very cheap motherboard to house it, and you had yourself a非常affordable computer. This made it our go-to recommendation for the absolute cheapest build inour main chart.

With the new AMD Athlon 3000G, ‘team red’ are hoping to capture that entry-level budget gaming market.
Yet have AMD hit the mark with this, or fallen short? Let’s find out!
The final piece in AMD’s 7th generation CPU refresh for the AM4 platform comes in the form of three new Athlon processors: the X4 940,X4 950, and X4 970. Unlike the two sets of A-series CPUs (see our35Wand65Wbuilds), these new Athlonsdo notcome with onboard GPUs.
The advantage, however, is that these are unlocked cores and can be overclocked much harder. So read on to find out exactly what you can build with the new AMD Athlon chips!
