Top 10 Best Budget CPU Under 100 USD

If you are looking to buy a CPU on a budget under $100, you’ve come to the right place. Here are the CPUs that I think are the best bang for your buck. I don’t recommend buying a cheap CPU unless your budget is super tight. The reason for that is because there are going to be compromise with these processors.

The reason I recommend these CPUs is that these chips are solid performers. They will do their job when the need arises. Another reason I recommend these is because they are both powerful enough to run everything you want to do at home. You could potentially even run a gaming rig. I will even go as far as to say that these CPUs are future-proof. These are both one of Intel’s top processors and there are tons of improvements going on with each generation.
