when I got my C2Q it was already 2 years old, too

it was from 2006 and I got it end of 2007

C2Q aged well

so you don't think this one will feel in 2027, like the C2Q feels today?

Well it might, it's definitely dependent on what you do with it

and how much PCs change

Maybe we will have quantum computers by then

would actually be amazing and drive me to spend money on computers again

Like Intel's last flagship CPU was a quad core with 8 threads like yours

Now they're 6cores

Even if quantum computers become available in 2027 they will be an external peripheral rather than a CPU replacement

PCs are set to change fast, hopefully

The C2Q aged so well cause PCs didn't change

What I did on my C2Q: Fedora, IntelliJ (Java, Go), Firefox, Darktable, Krita, VLC, Netflix

that's basically it

You'll be fucking set

who else /outrun/ here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iem75nuzok

My dad still has an i7-870, and he runs three monitors - video editing, porn, lots of piracy, lightroom, etc

kek

Little shitter keeps up even though it's a 2009 CPU

i7 870 is way more powerful than what most people have in their laptops today

Well my C2Q also kept up with my 2016 ThinkPad

As Droidbot said, computers didn't change much

@efaxdi of course but they're not running such a heavy workload

my mum has a fucking core M3 and it is incredibly snappy for Facebook shitposting and general tasks

My mother has a PowerBook G4

😄

PCs havent changed cause they haven't needed to

she didn't fall for the x86 meme yet

good, she hasnt connected to the botnet

:)

me personally I'm waiting for X99 Xeons to drop in price and getting me one of those

the e5-16xx chips have unlocked multiplier and OC quite well

and they're 12 and 10 core chips

I was seriously considering to save up for a TR to ensure that I won't need a new computer anytime soon

but then this occasion showed up

ITT we wait for our packages 🤔

im waiting on 2 chink watches

and 1 wireless mouse

on 11.11 i made 6 orders

I'm waiting on a microSD for music
