The best processor for a budget gaming PC

The quad-core Intel Core i3-12100 is one of the most interesting and affordable options for building an inexpensive gaming PC. It consumes little power, runs low on automatic boost, and is compatible with the Intel LGA 1700 processor socket. This is a big plus, since Intel has decided to extend the lifespan of the LGA 1700 over several generations of processors. Therefore, in 2–3 years, the Core i3-12100 can be easily upgraded to a more productive and modern Core i5 or Core i7 of the 13th or 14th generation.

4 Performance cores with Hyper-Threading support

Unlike older Core i5/i7/i9 processors from the Alder Lake family with hybrid P and E cores, the Core i3-12100 uses performance class cores. They support automatic overclocking technology and can simultaneously process two computational threads. In normal mode they operate at a frequency of 3.3 GHz, and in case of lack of computing power they can be overclocked to 4.3 GHz.

DDR5 memory support

Overall, the Core i3-12100 offers perhaps the best price-performance ratio among entry-level processors, providing solid performance not only in office applications, but also allowing you to play the latest AAA projects in Full HD at medium graphics settings. For example, slightly more productive analogs from the 13th and 14th generation Intel Core will cost one and a half to two times more. And rivals from the AMD camp, represented by the Ryzen 5 3600 and Ryzen 5 5600, are limited to the outdated AM4 platform and, unlike the Core i3-12100, do not support DDR5 memory.
