Under the hood: What’s your CPU?

The latest news is that AMD is coming out with a quad-core CPU (Athlon II X4) for under Php5,000USD 85INR 7,223EUR 81CNY 621. If consumers tend to upgrade their PCs every 18 months or so, we should be seeing at least dual cores in homes nowadays.

I’d like to know what processor type/speed you run at home — AMD or Intel?

Mine’s the ff.:

  • Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
  • AMD Athlon X2 7750 2.7GHz

amd

How about yours?

  1. amd athlon 2000

  2. i have an Athlon X2 4650e at home. :D dual core procies are getting *really* cheap nowadays.

  3. core2duo 2.93ghz. 4gb ram.

  4. For my laptop Intel® Centrino®2 Processor Technology

  5. Mine according to CPU-Z is AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
    Decent working machine, had it for about a year now for my desktop.

    I agree that high-end processors are becoming cheaper and more accessible to the basic users.

    Picture this: 3 years ago I bought an Intel based PC package for 35k if I’m not mistaken that’s a P4 3.0 flat crt monitor etc.

    The desktop I bought last year cost 27k and with the processor above plus a nice 19″ widescreen LCD.

    Technology is getting really cheap really fast!

  6. mine is pentium dual-core 2.2ghz

    maybe try another twist… a prize from amd for the oldest working personal desktop cpu… with pictures and receipt (i’m sure those things were expensive)!

  34. miss abe my tatanong lang medyo wala sa topic d2 tanong ko lang merong bang service ung nokia store ung uupgrade ung cellphone parang i swaswap q ung phone q with another model?

  35. Q6600 2.4ghz for desktop and core2duo 1.67ghz on my laptop.

    Dun sa nagtatanong for gaming. If your budget is limited you can try a xeon or e8400 since most games use only 2 cores and and they will run better on a procie clocked at 3.0ghz than on a quad core with 2.4 ghz. Pero kung malakas loob mo buy ka q6600 or yung upgraded version nyan (i forgot the name) tapos OC mo. Sulit yan!

  36. I have a Pentium D 8 series and Core 2 duo e8400

    For gaming, kahit nga yung e7xxx series will do na. especially if your on a budget. Some recommends a Phenom Black series..

  37. intel celeron 2.0Ghz 478socket 400Mhz ung fsb.. mas may babagal pa ba d2?? hehe

  38. i am currently using Core i7-870 with 2.93 Ghz on my shuttle xpc and im happy with it.

  47. intel e7300 2.67

  48. mine is

    4GB RAM
    MSI mobo

    for general use and for web designing.

  50. AMD Athlon 7850 Black Edition 2.8GHz
    I got this cheap Php 3,500 upgrade coming from my 2yr old Athlon 3800+ without changing mobos (after selling off my old proc, i ended up paying only 2.5k hehe).

    Paired with a GTX 260, i run the latest games on decent settings. A better GPU will get you farther than getting the best CPU.

  51. 2 desktops on PDC 2.5
    2 laptops on C2D 2.0
    1 laptop on single core
    1 Pentium 4 1.8 (my first intel ever, still working well. yes. I am a convert.)
    1 Celeron 2.0

  52. Oh and and I had an Averatec laptop with mobile AMD on it, and you could literally fry an egg from the metal backing that covered the CPU. Let’s just write that off as a hidden feature.

  53. Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200.

  54. AMD Athlon X2 4400+
    Intel Pentium 4 2.80a

  55. AMD Athlon 1.9XP (1.6Ghz)

  56. i think mine is the oldest… It’s a P3 Coppermine running at 700Mhz with Speedstep Tech… So it’s probably running at 400mhz most of the time… He he he…

    At least this thing never gives me a headache when my electric bill arrives every month…

    AND I USE IT FOR GAMING… Online gaming nga eh… He he he… You guys go to Ikariam.ph Alpha Server and you guys come ang get me… If you can! He he he… Just look for Pusang Kulog when you get there…

  57. Intel Pentium Dual E2200

  58. Desktop: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400, 4GB RAM 1Terabyte Sata HDD

  62. Laptop: Pentium Dual Core T2310
    Desktop: Pentium D 820

  63. Athlon XP 2600… :( obsolete…

  64. The desktop PC at home that I rarely use nowadays has an AMD Sempron 2800+. That’s a really old single-core, 1.6 GHz version of the ancient Athlon 64 processor. It’s not even capable of 63-bit!

    My laptop, which is my primary computer now really, has a more decent AMD Turion X2 that runs at 2.1 GHz.

    This cheap quad-core from AMD is really good news for me. I need as many cores as I can get for my 3D graphics hobby. =D

  65. Mine is Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz

  66. ambibilis naman ng computers nyo.

    desktop ko (pinaassemble ko, la ako pera nun eh) 6 years and counting AMD Duron 1.3 GHz 640 MB RAM. (me tatalo pa?) sa awa naman ng diyos tolerable speed. di naman kami naglalaro ng games. watch lang ng movies and internet. download machine lang. (1 TB external seagate HDD for downloads, 120 GB internal HDD for other downloads)

    3 year-old laptop intel celeron 1.6 Ghz 1G RAM. ayus naman, nakaka-edit naman ako ng simpleng movies dito (windows moviemaker).

    asus eee pc 701 => intel celeron 900 MHz ata (tama ba?) loaded with ubuntu 9.04 jaunty jackalope.

    so far wala pa akong nakikitang need to upgrade. pag bumigay na lang o iobsolete na nila ang win xp. tingin ko baka di na kayanin ng mga pc ko ang win7.

  67. Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.4 Ghz)

  68. Desktop: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200(2.66GHz)

  69. desktop: athlon xp @1.8ghz 1gb ram winxp

    also have a Athlon X2 3600+, not sure whether it or the mobo that’s dead.

  71. mine is… AMD K6 2 500Mhz… upgraded na yan from the Cyrix one.

  72. AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+, MMX, 3DNow (2 CPUs), ~2.6GHz

  73. Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz

  76. -Athlon 64 3200+ I assmbled in ’06, pro oki pa man w/ legit XPsp3 on a 40″ Sammy LCD.
    -Athlon XP2400 (6 y.o.!) 1.5Gb mainly for web surfing, I think na OC to 2.8Ghz.
    -Core 2 Duo 14″ notebook on Vista Premium (’08)
    -Macbook with 2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, just got it for d misis to replace her Athlon XP2500+ 17″(2003)notebook, bagal na nito..
    -Antique PII 300 on Win 98+! ok pa ang condition, I kept for fun..
    Hinihintay ko na mag-drop ang prices on these quads. By end of this year meron cguro packages under $1K. I used to build noon, but considering the price of a legit OS, mas mura bumili ng pagkage.

  77. amd athlon x2 7750 2.7 ghz
