The Intel Celeron G1830 is a budget dual-core processor for desktops. Released in Q1 of 2014, this Haswell based version replaces Ivy Bridge Celeron processors such as the G1630. The G1830 scores an effective speed of 67 with its base clock of 2.8 GHz which is ample for basic processing needs. It's hard to recommend the G1830 over its almost identical successor: the Celeron G1850, which is priced the same but has a base clock 100 MHz higher. The Intel HD Integrated Graphics are not powerful, but they are fine for playing 1080p movies. The TDP of 53W means that the G1830 is a low power, low heat and therefore low cost processor. Coupled with an SSD and a decent graphics card the G1830 will give a reasonable user experience, even for 3D games. [Nov '14CPUPro]
AMD’s Ryzen 3 2200G is a budget APU (accelerated processing unit: combined CPU and GPU) from its Raven Ridge product line. It has 4 Zen CPU cores which run at a base clock of 3.5 GHz up to a max boost clock of 3.7 GHz. It also has Radeon Vega 8 Graphics. The $105 price tag also includes a Wraith Stealth cooler. Intel’s 15% more expensive quad core i3-8100 CPU beats the 2200G in terms of single core workloads by 13%, but the effective speed of Intel’s integrated UHD 630 Graphics falls around 77% short of AMD’s RX Vega 8. The 2200G offers unsurpassed value for money for an all in one budget multimedia or ultra budget gaming PC. [Apr '18CPUPro]
