i5 2500 (non-K)

I just didn't mind about any clocks for about 4-5 years, but I remember, that it was like 3.6Ghz at this voltage.

Maybe I'm just wrong, wanted to figure it out.

I'm a bit confused... what is it you're asking? CPUs don't degrade AFAIK unless they're under extreme temperatures for long periods of time.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

3.7ghz is the turbo. Turbo boost kicks in when the system is under load.

CPU degradation is really only a thing if you're overvolting your CPU from what i understand. This CPU is locked so assuming it's been running in a proper environment it should perform just as good as it did the day you bought it and long outlive your motherboard.

It was turbo boosted in this moment due to some computations (even a coursor movemend was stuttered).

3.7ghz is the max turbo for a single core. When all cores are loaded, it's 3.4ghz per core.
