Your CPU History Tree

P2 200mhzish
P3 500mhz
P4 2.53ish ghz
AMD XP 3200 2.2Ghz
AMD XP-M 2500+ 2.6ghz
AMD 64 3500+ 2.1? Ghz
AMD 64 3800+ San Diego 2.2Ghz
AMD 64 X2 3800+ 2.2Ghz
Intel C2D E6600 2.4ghz --> 3.456Ghz
Intel C2D T8600 2.4ghz (MBP)
And soon:

Intel Xeon Core i7 2.93ghz Mac Pro *fingers crossed*
 
Hmm, I started with a Casio PB-100, looked like a long calculator, then an 8086 Amstrad 1512. Surely someone else had 8086's too?! :confused:
486DX mongrel that a friend built.
PII MMX.
P4 1.4 (first of the P4's that Dell sold with that awful Rambus RIMM memory that died a death and cost a fortune. :mad:
Went straight to E6600.
 
Intel Pentium 133
AMD K6 400
AMD Athlon 1200
AMD Athlon 2500 mobile
AMD Athlon 3200 skt 754
AMD Athlon 3400 skt 939
AMD Athlon 144 skt 939
AMD Athlon 4800+ X2 AM2

Hope to go Intel in the very near future...
 
unknown 486 was 100mhz i think, good enough to play swiv3d anyway
Cyrix or IBM pr233 166Mhz actual
AMD K6.2 350Mhz - First chip I ever overclocked
INTEL Celeron 366Mhz Sckt 370
AMD Athlon 1Ghz Sckt 462 not an AXIA unfortunatly so Oc'ing was poor
AMD Athlon XP 1800 - with my one and only dable with water cooling (koolance)
INTEL Pentium 4 2.4Ghz 533fsb overclocked a little
INTEL Pentium 4 2.4Ghz C 800fsb added hyper threading and overclocked a tiny bit more was also cooled with a vapochill not that it overclocked anymore for it
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 939
AMD Opteron 146 939
AMD Athlon X2 4000+ ,though only Briefly till i had enough for the below
INTEL Pentium Dualcore E2180 , what i'm currently using at 3.3Ghz
 
Cyrix 686 (P166) - Floating point performance was weak, wish I'd gone for a Pentium 133
P200MMX
Celeron C300a @450MHz on the good old BH6
Duron 800 @1000MHz
AthlonXP 2000+ (both on the good old KT7a)
P4 3.0HT @4GHz
E5200 @3.5GHz
 
duron 1300
AMD XP 1900+
AMD 2500+
AMD 2500+ mobile
AMD 3200+
P4 northwood 3.0ghz
AMD64 3700 +
AMD64 4000+
AMD X2 4200
AMD X2 4800
E6700
Q6600
E8400

i think thats the right order :p

lets see
commodore 64 (tape deck)
atari ste 1024 model iirc
packard bell sx2 50
custom made pentium 100
tiny (shudder) pIII 500mhz - I was naive back then :D
custom made (to my spec) dual cpu athlon mp 1900+
athlon 4 1200mhz in sharp laptop
(built) opteron 175 (still use)
(built) x2 4200+ (still use)

Next step is probably i7 unless the new phenom x4's really hit hard and of course the matx boards become available at normal prices :)
 
6510 1Mhz (C64)
68000 7.13Mhz (Amiga A500)
680EC20 33Mhz (Amiga B2000 + Accel)
65c816 (5A22) 3.58Mhz (Super Nintendo)

and after 1999.....

Pentium Pro 200Mhz
PIII 800EB 800Mhz
Athlon Thunderbird (forget whch model)
Athlon XP1600 1.4Ghz @ 1.7Ghz
Athlon XP2000 1.67Ghz @ 1.8Ghz
Athlon XP2500 1.83Ghz (Mobile Barton) @ 2.4Ghz
Opteron 144 1.8Ghz @ 2.75Ghz
A64 3800+ 2Ghz @ 2.9ghz
Opteron 165 1.8Ghz @ 3ghz
C2D E6420 2.13Ghz @ 3.5Ghz
C2Q Q6600 B3 2.4Ghz @ 3.4Ghz
A64 5000+ 2.5Ghz @ 3.2Ghz (Black Edition)
C2Q Q6600 2.4Ghz @ 3.85Ghz

Have to say my pre 1999 computing experience was amazing.. demo/console coding, phreaking, bbs`s, demo scene/cr***ing scene was all the rage back then..
 
Bit with long upgrade cycles

486SX33
Cyrix 300
Athlon 700MHz
Pentium 4 3.00GHz

---

Short upgrade cycle...

Athlon 64 3000+ (poor clocker)
Opteron 144 (CABYE)
Athlon 64 3000+ (LBBLE 0516 :))
Athlon 64 3700+ ( x 3 of old and new KAB2E batch codes)
Opteron 165 (CCBBE :D)
C2D E6300 (L629B)

...and back to longer upgrade cycles :o
 
AMD K6-2 (First Computer - Pre-built Evesham)
AMD XP-1600
Intel P4 2.4Ghz Northwood (which I still have)
AMD 3500+ Winchester (2.2Ghz 939)
AMD 4000+ San Diego (2.5Ghz 939)

yeh....

err
Cyrix PR100
Intel PII350
Intel PIIIe500 (first OCUK order)
AMD TB800
AMD TB1200 (Axia goodness, died when overvolting to 2.2volts :D)
AMD XP1500 (died under TEC cooling, got soaking wet)
AMD XP1800
AMD XP1700 (overclocked a hell of a lot more than the 1800)
AMD XP2500 (still running today as server)
AMD A64 3200 (1mb 754)
AMD A64 3200 (1mb 939)
AMD X2 4400 (2mb 939)

I think that might be all of them. thinking of a intel 8400 :) the X2 4400 is the longest ive had a CPU (it did cost £600 :rolleyes:.....)
 
intel 66mhz (not sure on model)
intel 166mhz (same again)
AMD barton 2500+ (i know, big leap! that's when the interest in computers started)
AMD 64 3500+
intel Q6600 (current)
 
Let's see 'er:

Cyrix MKII@75MHz
Pentium MMX@133MHz( I think)
Pentium II@350MHz
Pentium III Coppermine@667MHz
Celeron-256 [email protected]
Pentium 4 [email protected]
Pentium Dual Core E2140. (stock 1.6GHz, currently have it at 3GHz. Wewts. :D)

Gosh my CPU list has barely been one sided at all. :p

Oh and in terms of laptop CPUs:

VIA C3@1GHz
Pentium M@ 1.8GHz
