>It's a dual core 1GHz.
didn't know such a slow dual core can even exist

>they're are literal children browsing 4chan right now

We should've killed /pol/ before they brought all these newfags here.

I'm 21. I mostly just thought it would be a fun thread to just recommend old games. I've been on /v/ far longer than I should have been allowed to though

>>379745432
Yeah I was surprised too

>>379745098
Thanks, I've always intended to play Planescape, I just keep forgetting. Now I have no excuse

Mount and blade: Warband
Rome total war
Starcraft
Warcraft 3
Oldschool runescape

Probably emulators of gba, snes and ps1

>this kid actually installed windows 10 which must kill performance on this pc

Nigger install win xp 64 bit or a linux distro

>>379748769
I'll play anything. Although I've never been particularly good at RTS, I love turn based strategy.

>>379749096
The computer just came like this, got it used for $30. Previous owner probably just clean installed it on here before selling it. It has a Windows 7 sticker on it so I'll probably put that on here when I get the chance

Majesty Gold is awesome

Then in that case you might be able to play some old PC games, I suggest The operative no one lives forever

>>379750040
Cool, thanks

Old PC games like NOLF run like shit on Windows 10. He'll have to use a wrapper like dgVoodoo2 to get a playable framerate but even then that requires decent hardware.

>>379749096
Windows 10 is actually more lightweight than 7 and uses better the gpu.

>>379750697
Yeah but hes switching back to windows 7

I dont believe those results for one second with all the bloated apps in basic home installation. Maybe if it was the ltsb edition. I would also like to see what would happen once the ram hits its limit then goes to the HDD.

Im gonna test this for myself.

>>379751739
Is that the C2Q's idle temperature? I was considering getting one for a freedum loonix machine.

>Still using an HDD
SSD or get out, this machine outperforms any modern pc with mechanical drive on most tasks
>>379753678
Yeah, kinda, its an old pc

>>379749096
>Use an OS from 16 years ago
Security holes through the ass. The oldest Windows OS anyone should be using right now is Windows 7.

Not sure what you are talking about with Windows 10 killing performance. Windows 10 is pretty quick for me. I installed the OS on a SSD and I can get to the desktop within 30 seconds from power on. Wouldn't be surprised if people can boot faster but I don't see Windows 10 as slow.

>>379754932
On my actual desktop computer I'm on my desktop within 15 seconds of pressing the power button with my SSD

>>379756283
Most UEFI motherboards boot in that time from HDD in windows 10, on SSD should be faster some seconds faster

>>379756283
On windows 7? Takes me all of 5-6 seconds from cold boot straight to desktop. The animation doesn't even finish by the time I'm on desktop. You're doing something wrong.

>>379756752
That's because on windows 10 upon shutdown they don't really shut down, it's some bastardization between hibernate and shut down. Cold boot on windows 10 on a typical 5400RPM HDD or even a 7200HDD takes approximately 40 seconds.

My motherboard splash screen dicks around for a good 7-8 seconds. I bought a cheap mobo like a dumbass
