Your CPU History Tree

Erm crikey, I'm not sure I can even remember them all...

Intel 386sx 16mhz (Powerful enough to play such wonders as the Eye of the Beholder series, Star Control 2, Wing Commander, Sword of the Samurai, 4D Sports Boxing and other such gems. Happy days.)
Intel 486dx ?mhz
Intel Pentium 75mhz
Intel Celeron 333A
AMD Duron 700
AMD Athlon XP 1800+
AMD Athlon XP 1900+ (The previous one died hence the not very major upgrade.)
Intel C2D e6300

That's from around 90/91 to the present day, not bad.
 
AMD K6 200
AMD K6-2 333
AMD K6-2 400
AMD Athlon 1GHZ @1.4ghz
AMD Dual MP 1900's
AMD X2 3800 @2.5ghz

Laptop - Intel Core Duo T2300E last xmas to break AMD's hold on me! :eek:
 
God, haven't got a clue at this stage but, since I really got into PC hardware round about when I was 12..., an incomplete list would be...

Cousin had a 386 which I used loads before being bought my first PC...which was a
486 Dx2 66
Pentium 100
Pentium 150
Penitum 233MMX (O/c'ed to 266 iirc)
K6-2 300
K6-3 @ 400
Celeron 300 @ 450mhz
P3 - (Katmail) 500
P3 - (Coppermine) 800, overclocked to something ridiculous at the time...I forget
p4 - 1.7ghz (fell out of PC scene for a few years)
C2D E2160 1.6ghz @ 2.6ghz
C2Q Q6600 2.4ghz @ 3.4ghz (at the moment anyway!)

God i've missed out loads of secondary PC's, Laptops and a few other CPU's along the way...Pretty sure I bought an athlon system at some point...

Hell I even had a Pentium Pro (remember them?) File server rescued from work, years back...
