This is not a good deal. First of all I highly doubt this mobo and CPU will be Windows 11 compatible so you’re out of luck there.

That’s a feature lol

For $373 you can find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and mobo combo deal that will vastly outperform this Chinese CPU

Really? I’m actually asking because I don’t think you can get the amd combo you mentioned at that price. Also, we’d need to confirm the specs and performance. So far it would be just speculation

Without even trying… https://pcpartpicker.com/list/msJQ6D

This is not even the lowest you can go, as I wouldn’t get an A620 mobo. Also not a recommendation, just first three components I found.

BTW, afaik this is a MIPS CPU, with proprietary ISA. Who would want this other than the Chinese government exactly?
