It costs only a little more than 11400 but performs almost as 11600... for sure it's a great buy!

This processor is a value winner for mid- and high-range gaming/borwsing/multitasking, etc. Game Over for AMD in this range, until Zen4.

Fantastic value in my opinion. Also with the insane GPU shortages it's nice to see a decent integrated GPU.

Price- but don't bother with the stock intel cooler its way too noisy and you will need an alterative cooler
