This is impossible

>>58499455
It's essentially a weak first gen core2duo
People have apparently bought it, I have no idea why.

>>58499498
>weak
Its better than a LOT of laptop CPUs. But yet I still see grandpa using a fucking i3 or i5 to check his email and play solitaire.

Yes its weak and thats the point, it also doesnt use hardly any power as a desktop cpu

It was garbage.

>>58499758
Pajeet please, I already have a core2 box in my closet, no one wants that old shit

>>58499494
No it's not, I had an FM2 at 15-20C.

>>58499455
Same performance with twice the cores is not something to brag about

Why are you bragging about how inaccurate the temp sensor is?

>>58499864
'ok'

>>58499834
The temperature isn't being read correctly, unless your room was at -10 degrees celsius

The cpu temp can't be under cooler than ambient temperature, if you're using air cooling

>>58499841
it is when it's 1/4th the power consumption. Dumbass

Thanks amd

>>58499498
Supports ECC mem, you can make a NAS box with it for cheap

>>58499455
>air cooling below room temperature
Has AMD managed to defy defy the laws of science?

>>58499885
Can't wait to save $0.03 on my energy bill this year!

>>58499953
Find me a board with ecc support

AM1 is garbage

Apollo Lake destroys it in performance and feature with 8K HEVC Main10 hardware decoding & 4K VP9 hardware decoding, which AM1 can't support at all

ASUS AM1M-A. Specification on website says it doesn't support ECC but they updated manual because it indeed supports unbuffered ECC as people on enthusiast forums found out.

You can force ECC support on AMD CPUs in the Linux kernel.

I use a 5350 with the Asus AM1M-A and it's good, I can play most games around 30 fps.
I need a strong graphics card, though.

What's good about this? Thing's weaker than some tablet SoCs.

>>58501021
Stability, Never had any problems with this combo. It was originally meant to be a htpc for a client but now I use it to stream movies and run emulators.

>>58501335
What do you emulate?

>>58500286
brilliant

>>58499813
like core2 solo or core2 duo?

>>58499455
Most of the motherboards were pure shit. ASCock produced by far the best cheap one.

>>58500069
And was also released years after the AM1 platform, your point?

>>58499873
you cant go lower than your ambient temp, fucktard

>>58501467
you forgot core2quad

>>58499873
15 celsius is 59 fahrenheit. And it's impossible for any cooler (air or liquid) to get a CPU below room temperature. So either you live in a Chinese prison, or your temp sensor is fucked.
