Verdict
Our verdict on the Celeron G6900
The Intel Celeron G6900 is a basic two-core desktop processor for budget builds, limited mainly by its lack of hyper-threading.
Get it if you're building the cheapest possible office PC or home server that just needs to run a single app at a time. Skip it if you plan to multitask, game, or do anything beyond basic web browsing and documents.
Buy it if…
