What Owners Say

Owners like it for basic office work since it's cheap and runs cool. The usual gripe is that it feels slow with multiple tabs or programs open.

Pros
  • Boots older PCs instantly
  • Pulls very little from the wall
  • Stays cool with the stock cooler
  • Handles office tasks without fuss
Cons
  • Only two physical cores
  • No hyperthreading support at all
  • Integrated graphics are very weak
Verdict

Our verdict on the Celeron G5920

A basic dual-core desktop CPU for light office work, held back by lacking multithreading and integrated graphics.

Get it if you need the absolute cheapest chip to get a basic office PC or home server running on an LGA1200 board. Skip it if you plan to do anything beyond light web browsing or file serving, even a used i3 will feel much faster.

Buy it if…

  • You want the cheapest possible PC for basic office work or web browsing.
  • You are building a home server or NAS that needs very low power draw.
  • You need a simple, disposable CPU for a kid's first computer or a school lab.
