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]
The Intel Core i9-10850K is one of the best valued high-end CPUs from Intel in the past few years. Essentially, the 10850K is a worse binned 10900K, meaning that it may be a hundred or two megahertz slower than the 10900K and may not overclock as well as a standard 10900K. Otherwise, the 10850K is nearly identical to the 10900K. The 10850K is a very strong gaming and workstation CPU. With a sub-$400 price-tag, the 10850K has a similar pricing to the Ryzen 7 5800X. Gamers who want the faster overall gaming performance should go with the Ryzen 7 5800X, while users who want the best overclocking and a slightly better workstation/multi-core performance may want to stick with the 10850K. Note that Intel will be switching to a new chipset with their 12th generation Alder Lake processors, so the upgrade path is limited to Intel's 11th generation Rocket Lake processors, which is mostly not worth the upgrade. Also, as of Q1 of 2020, the 10900K remains $75-100 more expensive than the 10850K. There is just not enough performance gain for most users to justify the extra cost, so most users would be better off with a 10850K. At the end of the day, the 10850K is still a very solid choice for anyone who wants a high-performing intel processor that will last for a good few years before really needing a upgrade.
