Athlon 2000+
Athlon 64 3400+ (socket 754)
Athlon 64 3700+ (socket 754 and sold on Ebay for more than it cost me when new)
Athlon 64 4000+ (didn't have this for long as my crappy Hiper Type R 580w exploded and killed the 2 week old DFI socket 939 motherboard it was in)
Intel E4300 (happily ran at 3.6Ghz)
Intel Q6600 (didn't keep for long as it was hot, power hungry and never used it to it's full abilities)
Intel E6600 (ran at 3.6Ghz 24/7 but was capable of 3.8Ghz)
Intel E8500 (ran at 4.5Ghz but degraded very quickly due to too much voltage)
Intel E8500 newer stepping (ran at 4.5Ghz 24/7)
Intel Q9550 (ran at 4.17Ghz 24/7)
Intel I5 750 (ran at 4.2Ghz 24/7 and probably the most pointless upgrade I have ever done)
Intel i5 4670k (ran at 4.4Ghz 24/7)
Intel i7 4790k (ran at 4.6Ghz 24/7. Only got this as it was cheap and the wife wanted my 4670k)
Intel 9600K (My first cpu to hit 5Ghz)

I also had Intel's Pentium E2140 and E2200 both of which hit 3.6Ghz which in the case of the 2160 was 2Ghz over it's stock speed of 1.6Ghz. The glory days of overclocking!! I briefly had a Pentium E5200 as well which ran at 3.6Ghz.

My next cpu will be a Ryzen but not until they launch their new socket and probably at least 6 months after so that most of the bugs will be ironed out.

I don't know what my next will be - I sincerely hope ARM gets their act together and start competing for the desktop high-end segment.

Tired of this x86...
