Posted March 6, 2014 I still have core 2 duo and found it offensive. They are 7 year old chips, in terms of gaming they are teetering on the edge, they will barely run bf4. For internet purposes they will still be very fast and useable for a while to come. #KilledMyWife LTT's Resident Black Star I should get an award for still being here at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 6, 2014 I have an old 7MHz (maybe 8086?) laptop with some kind of DOS 3, and I found this painful. 75mhz laptop would be a Pentium or AMD K5. 8086 would be in the 4.77-12mhz range.

I think it's in the PC-4500 family. Not sure, though. It has 640KB (maxed out) of RAM, and a 20MB HDD.

Posted March 6, 2014 Yep half the fun with hardware is building. This is why I have a few computers but ive definitely slimmed down from what I once had I just couldnt keep up with more also I didn't really use all of them fully. But you could start doing builds for others as thats just as fun. UPDATED An enthusiasts guide to video feat. MPC-HC + madVR | NEW UPDATE Supertower Build Log: Anthrax 8.0 ~ 02/21 - Follow!

Posted March 7, 2014 the 5+ months its taking for mine is whats doing it for me Take your time is the best advice I have. I got frustrated not having a desktop to use for 3 months so I rushed some of the last few cables I sleeved. They don't look horrible but they also don't meet my standards.
