Kek no. I know several people running C2D chips and they work fine for what they need.

The irony is that my CPU is a core2quad (lga771 convert), and the problem I'm having is RAM since 2GB DDR2 sticks cost more than 8GB DD4 sticks.

My AMD from the same generation (Athlon64 X2s) has become useless recently for internet browsing. I want to gouge my eyes out whenever I open a website like YouTube.

I literally had an Core 2 Duo E6700 until the i7 6700K came out.

You can stretch shit WAAAAY more then you could back then...

Shit I remember going from 486 > Penitum MXX 233 Mhz > Duron 700 > Pentium 1.7 Ghz > Athlon 4400+ > Core 2 Duo E6700

And then I simply stopped. Maybe because all I did was play fucking Dota 2 and shit...

I considered many times upgrading to say something like a i5 2500k or something... but there was very little incentive.

Only when it became apparent that my E6700 + 460 GTX wouldn't run any shit did I upgrade.

>>57569769
I mean yes but also no... depends on what you play.

If you're running that chip, you can pick up an FX-8320e for like $80 new. Only 95w compared to 125w of the older FX 8 cores. It over clocks very well. And you get the benefit of the newer instruction sets. You should be able to just pop the new chip into your existing motherboard. Your board is am3+ right? 970/990fx chipset? If so, you're golden.

Shame about it though. The X6 chips were an amazing performer for their price.

>TFW going from AMD to Intel.

I was running an FX-9370 at 5.5ghz under custom water cooling. Even paired with an r9-390 I was getting frame rate dips into the high 30s just trying to push a 1080p panel. Got fed up, bought a 6700k. 60fps in everything now on a new 1440p setup.

Although I will admit trans/encoding on that 9370 was a dream. My 6700k now hits 4.5ghz undervolted and I'm only using a single tower CPU cooler with one fan. Leagues of difference. Zen better be all that and a plate of tendies to make me even consider switching.

>>57572439
I already had the Sabertooth 990FX board. I got the 9370 for $10 more than a brand new 8350 was going for at the time. $10 for a guaranteed binned chip wasn't a bad deal at all.
The whole 220w thing is a misnomer. An fx-8350 clocked to the same levels would be using the same amount of power. AMD labeled 220w on those chips was to stop idiots from sticking them in $30 4+1 VRM boards and blowing them up.

No no no, you don't get it. it's about how long you want to keep your cpu. new i5 are fine but if you keep more than 3year you won't have the same performance compared to latest i5 while i7 last better, see https://youtu.be/4sx1kLGVAF0?t=119

Of course the stock Skylake is faster, and moreso if it is overclocked. They are three generations apart after all.

It does not matter to the owners that you tell that those little fuckers suck watts like there is no tomorrow, all they see is the expense of buying newer (forget anything newer than 2014) equipment rather than the TCO of maintaning those running over extended periods of time.

Anyway, you can still find some use to old computers if you want to cope with the electrical bills.

Perfect. A 700 series GTX would be more efficient, but it's not a big deal. This one requires two 6-pin connectors.

Aside from requiring two power supplies to run and being an electricity hog it's fantastic.

No benefit in getting a better computer unless you do work in a field that requires the best. Such as rendering. Video games too, but lol enjoy being a fucking loser.

Shame that people fall for the Jewish tactics. My computer works. It never freezes. It's fast and it can work with dozens of programs open without issue. It's perfect. The fuck would I upgrade for? It can't get FASTER. It's instant as is.

Most of this is geared towards gaymers anyways and they'll buy anything to get more FPS in their gay hobby.

Obsolescence only depends on what you are using it for.

lol? There's tons of people with temps like this in the speccy thread. My old mobo actually did have a broken temp monitor though and it just constantly reported 24c.

>tfw your entire everything becomes obsolete

I don't know what the issue is exactly, but I've tried watching 4k resolution videos on YouTube and while they do play perfectly, I notice my cpu usage floats around 80%.

i5 2500 at stock speeds
GTX 950

I imagine YouTube's HTML5 player isn't utilizing my gpu. Maybe in a few years once 4k truly goes mainstream our cpus will be obsolete.

>Have i5-2310

there is usually a large difference between laptop and desktop cpus.

firstly the 2310 has 4 physical cores, while the 5200U has 2 physical cores and HT. The U series is a laptop grade cpu, with a lower TDP of 15W.

>>57571155
idle temps are pointless, they just show you how hot/cold you keep your house or apartment because you can't cool your CPU lower than the ambient air temp. If you live in Sweden or some shit and have your computer sitting next to a window, just pop the window open for 10 minutes and enjoy idle temps under 15c.

It's totally unrealistic of real world use, but idle temps have literally no meaning outside of showing the ambient temps.

As long as you aren't idling above 40C things are fine.

>>57583678
>they think the city and populated area are evil and filled with drugs

My mom and dad have all sorts of opinions, too. But why does that matter?

Living in the middle of nowhere isn't an excuse for anything but being bored. Being bored isn't an excuse to not have a job.

Got that.
But still...

(I hope Zen will become an analogue of FX-s in 2012-2014. Dem sony vegas and Lightroom multicore usage, dem Vulkan and DX12 vidiya)

It works ok on all the websites I use. Keep in mind that a lot of stuff is GPU accelerated these days. In Firefox/Pale Moon I get "GPU accelerated windows" and I get accelerated youtube playback in fullscreen if I use the Flash player, even 1080p is smooth, but I get a blurry line at the bottom so I play videos in 720p.

I whana go back. Bet my c2duo and ati 4870 would perform like a charm on it. Afraid most software would break on it. Can you run the latest chrome build without issues? I wonder if games these days can even run on xp/vista.

>>57588636

Going online with XP these days is a death sentence.

>>57588636
Chrome stopped supporting XP a while back. I only run XP because Windows 7 has no hardware accelerated audio (no DirectSound). Aside from that Windows 7 actually runs pretty well because Aero gets a lot of acceleration from my GPU.

>>57569659
How's Antarctica these days?

>>57588732
The danger is vastly overstated. I still get regular updates because of the Windows XP embedded registry hack, and I'm running a limited user account. I haven't had a virus on a Windows machine since around 2005 anyway. I do regular virus scans but they never find anything.
