For those who don't know Intel had enabled hyperthreading on the Pentiums on Kabylake which essentially made it an i3 with no AVX support.
I had praised the hell out of the G4560 compared to the old Haswell G3258 (Garbage) because it could actually handle games well & it was actually making AMD's FM2+ platform worthless.
Now that Intel is killing their hyperhtreaded Pentiums their only low end options are i3's which are hard to recommend over even older AMD FM2+ platform & now with Ryzen 3 it makes Intel having no budget options for gamers at all.
Doing this just before Ryzen 3 release just seems stupid of Intel.
