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.

Good luck!

This does not come with a heatsink. So budget for that in your purchase.
It was 199.99 three months ago.

MB is $105 @ Amazon, $115 at Newegg
Where in your dreams can this specific MSI MB be had for $60?


People around here commenting on PC components sure do like to make shit up, like you should only "value" this MB at $60...for reasons.

That doesn't include a CPU! So not exactly comparable.

I've got a 5600G and yes, it is amazing for integrated graphics in a cheap system!

Yeah, I saw that deal when it was posted in January, but the title just said it was for a MB/Case/RAM, so I didn't dig into it. Wish someone had posted a separate deal thread for the MB/CPU combo.

That begs the question of warranty length…

I have this cpu, albeit on a b450 chipset. Paired with a 3060. 65watts max draw iirc, so heat and power requirements aren't very high. Stock coolers not really reccomended even tho i guess these modern cpus are made to run hot and self throttle. Ama

This is a great deal. I use the Ryzen 7 5700G on my virtual machine cluster because it has a very large cache and doesn't need a video card. I got the CPU from Amazon for $170 last year.

I'm kinda wondering where it says we don't get a heat sink and fan?
The inexpensive ThermalRight is a more than enough.

The stock cooler included with AMD retails CPUs is not good. You are going to want a better one anyway.

The 5600G is $116 on Amazon right now. Is that a better deal than this 5700G combo?

Think this is ideal for those who also might need office pc that might be passive cooled with igpu and low tdp

Intel offerings demand a little bit too much on their 12th gen lower and anything newer Is more expensive
