Looking for a great gaming PC on a budget? Cannot afford a graphics card? Here we bring the Best Budget gaming PC ft. AMD Athlon 200GE
In today’s day when AMD and Intel are going head to head, increasing core count and clock speed of the processors, getting hold of a good budget build is too hard at times.
The last quarter of 2018 has seen a vast increase in prices of Intel CPUs, which has led AMD to make a breakthrough in the market. Recently they have been successful in launching the new 7nm EPYC Rome processors.
A few months back they had launched a budget processor named the Athlon 200 GE that comprises 2 cores and 4 threads. Being clocked at 3.2 GHz, and having 3 Vega graphics core, it is the ideal low-budget streaming and gaming processor.
In this post, we will build a complete setup including monitor as because people need a good combo in a budget of around Rs.25,000.
Though Pentium G5400 is a great choice but as because of its high price we recommend the Athlon 200GE. Here’s our complete setup:
