I realize I sound like a broken record at this point, but the newest Pentiums and Celerons still do not support AVX, and this even applies to the models that use the full-fat Sky/Kaby/Coffeelake cores (though with smaller cache size) such as the ever-popular 2c/4t Pentium G4560 and its direct successor the G5400.
(and again, going forward the Athlon 200GE is a wiser choice of CPU, but that's only been on the market for a couple months now)
