I used a SL9400 without an SSD until early 2016 and I didn't have problems with modern programs or browsing any websites. I did not play games or render video, which many people do not.

The responses in this thread are very overblown. I still have an Athlon II computer and a Phenom II computer, which were worse than c2d and c2q in their day, and have zero problems.

These are more than adequate for modern browsers and websites.

>>59580869
That seems inaccurate, a 4790k is really ~4x faster than a Q6600? CPUs have gotten 4x faster from 2007 to 2014? The only "big" jumps we've had were between Core 2 and the first gen Core i-something CPUs, then I guess between 1st and 2nd gen with Sandy Bridge. After that it's been small and incremental improvements.

And that was the original node ones, not the dieshrinks, which output like half the heat.

>he didn't get the based P5Q Premium

>>59582161

It depends on your needs. If you don't play games or anything cpu intensive then benchmarks are meaningless.

A q6600 is obsolete to play modern games? I'm ok with that.

>>59581981
That OC isn't nearly as impressive as what the old C2Ds and C2Qs could do. A 7600K at 5GHz is like 20% above its stock clock. The old Q6600 could do like 3.6GHz (50% OC), or even 3.7-4.0 if you were very lucky and had the right stepping. That was a serious amount of extra performance. I had an i5 750, 2.66GHz CPU that ran 4.0 for years and could get up to 4.3 with voltage that I wasn't comfortable using all day every day. OC was much, much more impressive in the old days.

Nowadays you get a top-dog 7700K and you're lucky if you can push another 500MHz above it's 4.5GHz top clock. OC for actual performance is barely worth it anymore, it's pretty much just a hobby now. Ryzen is even worse on the AMD side. Back in the day you could get a very serious CPU performance boost from OC and the benefits were immediately and clearly visible.

Nowadays you get

Uh what? My work PC is a 7600K and I got it to a comfy 4.8Ghz.

>>59582200
>I don't use my CPU so it's not obsolete !!!
Then it's still obsolete because it uses a fuck ton of power compared to, say, an Atom.
Q6600 is not a useful CPU no matter how you choose to look at it. It doesn't matter what you do or how much you don't do anything with it, there's something better and more appropriate out there for you. If you don't need a lot of horsepower, you're better off with an Atom or an i3 that will pay for itself in savings on your electrical bill within a year.
As such, the Core 2 lineup is obsolete, no matter how many lies you tell yourself.

>I have a spare LGA775 board laying around that needs a good CPU
>I want to improve my current toaster but only want to spend so much for some unexplained reason

imo, C2Q is not energy efficient or really all that good at running today's software. Unless the need to get one is urgent, all money should be saved and put towards newer stuff. I run a X5470, but not for long. I edit videos, emulate more than I run newer games, pay bills, convert stuff. Depends on your needs

>>59582306
What's your point? That it didn't even hit 5GHz or what?

>>59582307
>tfw 34% OC on 4690k
34% above the boost clock, so about 5.2GHz? That's one fucking amazing 4690K you have there, you got very lucky.

1.32V is already pretty high for Haslel, does it throttle yet under AVX torture tests, like Linpack or P95 small FFT? Probably not advisable to push voltage even further.

>just ~20% over in that case
Yeah, figured as much, it's not very impressive. I've got a 4.7GHz 4790K too, it's much faster of course but nowhere near as impressive as the Q6600 and i5 750 that came before it. We've pretty much hit the clock wall.

>>59582587
Haven't tested with Linpack or P95, but it doesn't throttle under AIDA64's cpu+fpu+cache stress. During which it "only" spikes up to at most 75C averaging around 65C, so there's still a little bit of headroom as far as temperature is concerned.

A newer PC with a noticeable performance improvement will be at least $200.

Strip off a laptop charger and put both ends in the tap water, basically all that's going to happen is some light electrolysis, creating hydrogen and oxygen, I'm not saying I would stick my hand in there, but a 300W psu will do about the same thing, I've attempted to use a desktop psu for electrolysis of water, to use for an hho torch.

I'm not sure but if you had the hot side of an AC line in a puddle of water and a body part sunk into the puddle, if you would get shocked or not, but AC with no load isn't that bad it's more scary than anything as long as your body as the ability to instantly react and jump back you're usually fine.

/comfy771/ during the winter here. Old rack servers with Socket 771 Xeons are very efficient heaters. No kidding, I don't need to use my AC for heating at winters. Everyone shits on them for their power usage etc. but well in winter good heating with~200w power usage per server isnt that bad

my laptop processor plays 1080p netflix at 1.2% CPU use on battery saver

now you try.

I had a Q6600 @ 3GHz and I couldnt get over 30FPS in any modern game unless I set everything to low and ran at 720p or lower resolution.

Upgraded a couple 8-year-old machines at work with chink Xeons.

>4 x 2.33 GHz
>12 M cache
>50 watts
>8 dollars

I can't feel any difference compared to new i3s we're getting, if I find some small SSDs those machines will serve us for five more years easily.

>a 4790k is really ~4x faster than a Q6600?

3x seems more accurate.

Core 2/Core 2 Quad pale in comparison with modern CPUs. A fucking modern Celeron beats any of them.
