These are some of the best low budget CPUs from 2016 so if they're put to the test in 12-games in 2021, which one comes out on top? Back when they were new the Skylake based Intel Pentium G4400 was the more recommended CPU, but it is now bested by the Excavator based CPU code named Carrizo that is the AMD Athlon X4 845 in newer games that use more cores. In true AMD FineWine™ technology fashion. Seeing how cheap these CPUs are these days, would they still be a viable CPU option for a cheap gaming PC build?
