These are the desktop processors whose estimated price falls under ¥150,000, ordered by PassMark multicore benchmark score so the strongest option inside the budget comes first.
Source prices are published in US dollars, so ¥150,000 is converted at today's exchange rate, currently about $953. The processors that qualify therefore shift slightly as the rate moves.
The source publishes one USD estimate per processor. Every JPY figure on this page, including the ¥150,000 cap, is converted from that estimate at the latest rate we hold. It is not a live store price in your country and excludes local taxes, duties, and shipping. Check a retailer for what you would actually pay.
Read both benchmark scores
Single-core scores describe one thread and track lightly threaded work. Multicore scores describe total throughput and track rendering, encoding, and large compiles. A processor that leads one column can trail the other, so compare the column that matches your workload.
Confirm the platform before buying
A matching socket does not confirm motherboard support. Check the exact board on its manufacturer's CPU support list, including the minimum BIOS version. When the platform changes, budget for a motherboard, memory, and cooling as well as the processor.
The same budget in another currency
Source prices are in US dollars, so each currency has its own rounded budget and its own list.
