As good as it gets for an ultra low budget build. If you can invest a little more, maybe try a B450 board and an aftermarket cooler, try overclock the 3000g? IIRC the stock cooler that comes with the athlon is pretty bang average.


Is an Intel build really out of your budget, by the way? The Pentium G6400 is 2c4t but clocked quite 500MHz higher than the Athlon, although it's iGPU is... yeah.

What is this build for? Low fps gaming then ok.
If it is just media consumption / browsing then see if you get an used i7 4790 for around 4k. Available at times. Will outperform the 3000g. Get a used 710 for GPU temporarily and later upgrade it to a 1070 or so when prices fall?
