Your CPU Timeline

I don't even know my 1st one but it was slow as hell possibly pentium1
then Athlon XP 2600+
then E6600
then E8400

Not upgrading for a while now though (hopfully :p)
 
pentium 75 mhz wow did this cpu system suck
pentium 133 mhz
pentium 166 mhz
pentuim 2 233 mhz mmx
pentium 2 266 mhz mmx
pentium 3 500 mhz
amd 2100+
amd 3000+ current g/f
amd 3500+ rip
AMD 6000+ current

Yup, If i Recall it was 286/386/Pentium Pro/P3/Core (C2) that didn't Rely on Clock Speed but IPC, and the 486/ Pentium1/4/D, Relied Heavily on clock speed.

Don't forget the Pentium M, that relied a lot on IPC speed. The Pentium 4/D had a very long pipeline, so could (and needed to) run at very high clock speeds to acheive similar speeds as a PIII/Pentium M at lower clock speeds.
Who sees the pattern, though? Intel seems to screw up on every 2nd generation, and since C2 is WIN, then Nehalem must be...
;)

Really, all I know is that I can't afford Nehalem. :cool:
 
My own computers (not counting my brothers Amstrad :p), as I bought/got them:

Pentium2 233Mhz (still around somewhere I think..)
Celeron 333Mhz (also still around)
P3 450Mhz (Awesum, still around)
Duron 1.2Ghz
Athlon XP 2500+
Athlon 64 3000+ (in use now!)
P3 800Mhz
Celeron 700Mhz (router/firewall)
Celeron 1.2 Ghz
Core 2 Duo e4300

.. I think that's it. Oh yeah, for some reason I have loads of Pentium 2's. It's really bizarre, and not a single soul wants them. :(

How fast are they, and do you have motherboards?
 
With P2's? You'll make a lot better with ... anything, really. :P

I know, hence the reason I'm selling my Dell to get a new rig: E1200 OC'ed to something good (dont know how high I can get on stock cooler: can't afford a proper one! :( ).

well since i am still quite young(16 year old) i havn't had many CPU's though

pentium 3 800 EB ... have it on bookshelf(looking at it right now lol)
celeron 440 ... still in my computer working like beast (good teamspeak server)
pentium 4 2.5 ghz have it on book shelf
pentium 4 HT 3.75 ghz have it on book shelf
pentium D 3.2ghz ghz have that in gaming pc
pentium D 1.6 on my laptop (had to have vista)
pentium centrino 2.2 ghz on my laptop

and soon i should have an intel core 2 dou ... maybe core 2 quad has a gift this Christmas

i remember myself playing doom on my p3 when i was 6 .... it was fun lol

never had an AMD
 
Pentium D 915
Core 2 Duo e6750

I'm a noob. :laugh:
 
nub officially decided

well unless there is an itel that i can afford and i like i might get intel again but for now amd all the way
