Editor's Notes & Price Research

Our research indicates that this deal is $63.97 less (21% savings) than the next best available price of buying the bundled items separately from reputable merchants with prices starting from $302.97 at the time of this posting. -StrawMan86
Agreed. The 5700G is a good CPU with truly great integrated graphics, but AMD has kept the price so inflated that a price point like this is hard to clearly label a slick deal.
If someone has already been shopping the 5700G this could be a respectable bundle price for them, especially considering this is widely available for shipping.
However, anyone simply shopping a CPU/motherboard deal would only value the motherboard around $60 (basically, the price of the cheapest retail option). That puts this CPU's effective valuation in the deal at $180. As I suggested earlier, that's not bad but is still more than you might pay at Micro Center (assuming you have access to one nearby). Additionally, the MC option bundles the cooler(!).
Reminder that the 5700X is arguably a better choice for pairing with a dedicated graphics card, as AMD has limited the G-series to PCIe 3.0 (and made some other compromises). The fact that the G-series delivers graphics performance on par with a GT 1030 is truly a feat for integrated graphics, but those with needs beyond basic productivity and/or onboard connectivity would likely get more value from a model without an iGPU.

This promoted or something?
The mobo <$100
CPU down around $190 but down around $250 on sale
It's a "discount" but not sure it's that slick and the retail price here is a joke.
MB is $105 @ Amazon, $115 at Newegg
Processor $197 @ Amazon, $177 @ NewEgg
Best price mixing and matching is $282 for the combo. This deal is 16% off the cheapest of those two reputable vendors, which for computer components that don't move much, is slick. OP may indeed be shilling for an increased commission, but this is a deal.
Wow a great deal.
You can make a pretty capable entry level gaming pc for about $350 with this, even less if you scrouge. any pc head friend will likely have extra psu, case, ssd.
man I want to build this. I could make a system out of this so very easily.

Yeah, that would be a slick deal. This is not.
