PC Gamers: What's your cpu timeline?

[Fugu]

This is going to be a bit difficult but I will try to get them all.

1. 286 from my mom's work. I still have this.
2. 386, not sure where this came from.
3. Pentium II 266 - very large upgrade. Had this for awhile.
4. Pentium III 866 - Never worked particularly great and, as the clock speed suggests, this was a late model so it didn't stick around for very long.
5. Pentium IV 1.6 - Another large upgrade. I got this to coincide with moving to XP more or less.
6. Pentium IV HT 2.8 - I ended up being on this for many years, well past the point at which it had stopped being a reasonable choice for a gaming computer. What ultimately forced me to switch was the death of AGP (and also the presence of money in my wallet).
7. AMD 64 X2 6400+ - I bought this for virtually nothing to get my 4870 build started. It was old when I bought it but it worked well enough for the year or so I had it in my PC.
8. AMD Phenom II X3 720 - Replaced the X2 after about a year. I actually have a computer that still uses this; it works surprisingly well in 2019.
9. Intel i7 920 - My dad decided he no longer had any use for the completely overkill desktop that he'd built so he sold me the CPU. I ended up using this for nearly ten years. Again, the performance this puts out in modern games is surprising, to say the least. It took a long time for a significant upgrade to be available at a price that I was willing to buy in at.
10. AMD Ryzen 5 1600 - Current CPU. Fairly noticeable improvement from the old i7, so I'm satisfied. I'll be surprised if I go another ten years without upgrading again, but it's entirely possible.

My first PC was built around 2001 and it had 800 Mhz AMD processor. I cant remember the name. Then in 2005, I got AMD Athlon dual-core 2.0 GHz CPU. Then in 2012, I got AMD Phenom 965 @ 3,4 GHz. Now in 2019, I bought a laptop with i7-8750H.

[TaySan]

The struggle....

 

[dtcm83]

- Intel MMX 233MHz in my first (I think it was gateway?) computer
- Intel Celeron 800MHz in my second emachines computer
- Intel Pentium 4 2.4GHz in HP computer
- Upgraded the 2.4 to a 2.8GHz variant, my first CPU swap
- Intel Core 2 Duo e8400 in my first custom build
- Intel i5 3570k in my second (and current) custom build

The 3570k is paired with a GTX 970, and is decent for 1080p gaming, but definitely feeling very old now that I have a 4K TV and new games are really starting to show my build's age...Was considering a 9900k/2080ti build this year, but with everything AMD is doing with Ryzen right now I kind of want to see how Intel will respond. Either way, I've been knocking around the idea of a full new build for around a year now, and will likely take the plunge in the next 1-2 years.

[Dreams-Visions]

1. Intel 486DX-33 (1991)
2. Intel Pentium II 233Mhz (1998)
3. Anthlon XP (2002 - 2005) - first computer I built myself
4. /// moved to laptops with core duos and core 2 duos for these years, mostly gaming on consoles with very light PC gaming ///
5. Intel i7-920 (2009-2016) - pre-built
6. Intel i7-6700k @ 4.7GHz (2016 - Present) - pre-built, then gutted for parts to build my own with superior cooling and space.
7. ??? Looking at the AMD 3900X with cat eyes. Being forced to upgrade the mobo anyway means I am a prime candidate to jump back to AMD for the first time in nearly 20 years. my 6700k is just not consistent enough for ~4K gaming @ 120Hz. Gotta make that move and will likely make it in a few days time if I can snag a 3900x. Unlikely to be interested in the 3950x; I find the bleeding edge at max price tends to be a mistake. I'd like to be out the door with the mobo, memory and cpu for about $800 or so. If need be I'll step down to the 3800x. All of will be worlds better for my gaming experience than my 6700k. She's a great processor but 1080p is her limit and she's my bottleneck right now.

 

[GrrImAFridge]

1996: Pentium 200MHz
2001: Athlon Thunderbird 1.4GHz
2003: Athlon XP 2500+
2006: Athlon XP 4200+
2007: Core2Duo E6420 @ 3.2GHz
2012: i7 2600K @ 4.6GHz (later 4.5GHz)
2016: i7 6800K @ 4.2GHz
2018: i7 8700K @ 4.7GHz

The 4200+ was the first CPU I purchased with my own money, and I'd still be on the 6800K if it weren't for my motherboard dying late last year. At this juncture, I'm leaning towards the AM4+/AM5/whatever-it's-to-be-called equivalent of the Ryzen 3950X as my next CPU.

 

[inner-G]

My family's first PC was a 486 DX2 66mhz

In my teens I got a junk Pentium 3 machine

In college I built a system with a Celeron D 340 2.93ghz

Later in college, built a Athlon 64 x2 5400+ rig and used that until Skyrim came out and I wanted better performance

Then I built a i5 2500k system

Then I fell down a rabbit hole of hustling used parts, upgrading and really enjoying building the actual PCs. Built one for my wife, living room, sold a couple etc. But in the last few years I've had:
Xeon x3470
Xeon e3 1230 v-2
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black
i5 4570 (Dell Optiplex 3020 tiny SFF)
i5 4670 (late 2013 iMac)
i5 6600k
i7 7700k
i5 8600k
i9 9900k x2 (one is a Custom Windows PC and one is a 2019 iMac)

Still have most of them except I sold some builds with the x3470 and 8600k in them.

(also have an i7 8750h - laptop)

 

[FarZa17]

Intel Pentium II
Intel Core 2 Duo
Intel Core 2 Quad

Intel i7 4790k
Intel i5 3450

 

[Massicot]

2500k
4770k
6700k
9900k

Pretty easy to see exactly how often I upgrade from that timetable, lol

 

[Slick Butter]

I'm legit jealous about how many people can run the 4690k at 4.5GHz, while mine needs 1.24V for 4.4GHz, and throwing BSOD every time I attempt 4.5GHz. So I just run it at 4.2GHz, because it only needs +0.015V as offset (which should be only 1.115V in theory but HW monitor shows it going higher...maybe my board is a piece of junk and that's why OC is a bit of a lost cause).
I'm also tempted to only go for a 2600 because they are dirt cheap right now and I could just upgrade later to 3rd gen...I guess it depends on how greedy the local vendors will be.

Click to shrink...

I actually got pretty lucky with my 4690k in particular I think. But I've been paying for it by never being able to OC any of my GPUs at all. though that might be due to my cheap ass motherboard (went with the cheapest at the time.

This 4690k though was below 1V stock and only needs 1.23 for stable 4.5GHz. Could do 4.6 if i had better cooling.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Hmmmm... I have no clue what was in the real old PCs I had growing up in the 90s- my parents probably still have those machines stored somewhere, I think we had a Packard Bell and a Compaq before getting a couple Dell PCs towards the late 90s.

When I got my own desktop PC for college in the early 2000s I think it had a Pentium 4 in it?
2009 I built my first desktop PC from the ground up and I had an AMD Phenom II X3 720. That was a great budget chip- I was able to unlock the fourth core and overclocked the hell out of it.
2013 I rebuilt the guts of my PC and replaced my X3 720 with an Intel i5-4670k, which I still have.
2019 I plan on going back to AMD and probably go for a Ryzen 3700X or 3800X on Sunday.

Granted, I had a couple laptops during all of this time and I think those have all been various shades of Intel.

 

[Blade30]

Athlon XP (No idea what model, it was prebuild)
Intel Pentium D 805
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (still using it)

That's about it. I'm not sure but I think I'll finally upgrade my potato pc next year or so, I'll probably go with an AMD Ryzen cpu.

 

[Gamesadict]

This includes family owned computers
0. Several computers I was too young to even remember
1. Pentium II
2. Pentium 4 (2004)

From here these were mine
3. Athlon X2 4800 (2008)
4. Athlon II 240 (2010)
5. Phenom II 965 (2011)
6. I7 4790k (2015)

4 years with the i7. I think I'll have to upgrade next year, but depends on how games run once new consoles come out.

 

[kyo2004]

Let's see... AMD since forever for my desktop PCs...

AMD K6 II (1999??)
Athlon XP 2000+ (2004-2006)
Athlon 64 3000+ (2006-2009)
Phenom II X4 955 BE (2009-2015?)
Phenom II X6 1090T (2015-2018)
Ryzen 5 2600X (2018-Current)

 

[GeometryHead]

Prebuilt computers/laptops only pre 2012. Did not play games on PC back then, so I'm not quite sure what was in them.

2012: Built my first desktop PC, and the most sensible option at the time was the i5 2500k.
2018: Motherboard finally broke, Zen 2 was on the horizon, so I got a new motherboard and a Ryzen 5 1400 for next to nothing on sale, as a stopgap.
2019: Waiting for 3600 or 3700x. Looks like it's going to be a decent upgrade.

 

[Little Old Man]

Small list here
2004: Intel Pentium 4, 2.6GHz IIRC
2008: Intel Q6700 @ stock
2016: Intel 6700K

 

[maouvin]

Some 486
Some Pentium
Some Athlon XP
Pentium 4 HT (Or maybe that was before the Athlon)

And then I began building my PCs (and with my own money):
i5-750
i5-2500K (current)

Planning to upgrade to a Ryzen 3000 but I'll need to see how much they'll be here in Brazil (doesn't help AM4 boards have been a pain to find here for a while already).

Click to shrink...

i bought an i3, because it took forever for the original ryzen to come out

Pentium 3 450Mhz -> AMD Duron 1200mhz -> Core 2 Duo E6600 -> i7 6700k (current).

 

[LocoRoco]

just my AMD FX8350

 

[Digoman]

Ah.. one of those secret "how old are you" threads....

The sad part is that I'm old enough that I can't be sure of all my CPU history.

1. 8088 - IBM PC-Jr with an amazing 256kb of RAM (with expansion). Bit it did have 3 voices and 16 colors.
2. 386DX
3. 486DX2
4. Pentium
5. Pentium II
6. Pentium III
7. Athlon Thunderbird
8. Athlon 64
9. E8400
10. 2500K
11. 7700K

What I can't remember is if I jumped directly to a 386 to play Wing Commander or had 286 before that. Also maybe there's a Athlon XP missing.

So... 30+ years, and half of the list (386 to Pentium 3) is from the 90's.... it was really hard to keep it up with games requirements back then.

Oh yes, back in the day you had to upgrade every year pretty much. Gains were dramatic.
Pentium 90, 166, 233, Pentium 2 350 and then RAM as well. 8MB, 16MB, 24MB, 32MB, 48MB, 96MB, 128MB etc.

Nowadays I am still on my 2013 CPU, 6 years old and still running fine. Probably upgrading next year but Moore's Law definitely has slowed to a crawl.

 

[Teh_Lurv]

I had to rack my brain about this one and consult Wikipedia CPU lists, but I was able to piece together my PC CPU history:

1994-1999: 33Mhz 68040 in my Performa Macintosh
1999-2000: 333Mhz G3 in my iMac (Mine was Grape!)
2001-2003: 400Mhz G4 in my G4 Tower
<At this point I moved to DIY PC building>
2003-2004: Athlon 1800+ XP
2004-2008: Athlon 2600+ XP
2008-2016: Core 2 Duo 4300
2016-Now: i5-6500

 

[Arkaign]

Many, many, many dozens, probably into the hundreds by now. I work in the industry, and have since the early 90s, and a hobbyist going back to 81 @ 4 years old programming using Basic on an Atari 400 to make a mother's day animated card.

More apt question for me would be which ones I didn't directly own or use in my personal rig at any time. Usually because I had been unimpressed with using them on my bench units or in other contexts.

Never chose :

386sx/486sx
VIA anything
Slot A Athlon
Socket 423/Willamette
Cacheless Celerons
P4 Prescott/Presler
Phenom I
FX Series
Ivy Bridge
1st gen Ryzen
5th, 6th, 7th gen Intel Core

 

[myzhi]

Many old CPUs not listed.

Recent:
Intel 2600K - 2011
Intel 5930K - 2014
Intel 9700K - 2018

I should be good for 1-2 more years.

 

[floridaguy954]

I'm also including my laptop CPUs as well:

AMD Athlon 64 3000+
AMD A10 4600M (Bulldozer was fucking horrible)
Intel i5 4670k
Intel i7 6700hq
Intel i5 6600k
Intel i7 7700k (current CPU with 4.9 GHz OC)

Ryzen 3 is definitely my next upgrade but that upgrade will be next year to coincide with RTX 2.0.

 

[qa_engineer]

5820k (2015-present)
3900X if reviews and game tests are positive

 

[Golden]

I wont remember prior to 2010, though I have been PC-gaming since the early 90's. (definitely a few pentiums in there!) 2010 was when I first built my own, so I remember all the parts I have had.

2010-2016 i7 930
2016-now Xeon x5670

Everything is so graphic card dependent, that I wont see much gains upgrading the processer. They might be a few gains, but I would always get better gains upgrading the GPU.

I plan to build a whole new PC sometime after 2020. I will buy a PS5, and a new TV first, and then when I do upgrade the PC I want to be taking a gaint leap forward. Maybe ryzen "4"!

[funtastrophe]

This'll be a bit of a partial list, as I did cpu tech blogging for a while, back the last time AMD was interesting.

Owned by my dad, used heavily by me:

Z80 (Tandy TRS-80)
8088 (Tandy 1000)
80286

Owned by me:

80386 33MHz (0.033 GHz)

Click to shrink...

The socket above the CPU is for a "math coprocessor". At this point, IBM Compatible (x86) CPUs couldn't do floating-point math (eg: 0.5 + 0.5 or square roots or whatnot). It was only with the 486 processors a generation after that floating-point math could be handled by the CPU, though not in the cheaper variants. Lower right are the memory slots, and those black slots above it are ISA slots, the precursor of PCI slots. From above, they kind of look a bit like the slots you'd plug games into in the NES.

AMD K6-2 500MHz (0.5 GHz)

Click to shrink...

You'll notice that this one has two of those black ISA slots. The five white slots are PCI slots, and the brown one is an AGP slot. That last one was specifically for a graphics card -- I think it gave the card faster access to system memory. Said memory is searingly fast PC100 DRAM, from not long before DDR became a thing (erm, the memory type, not the rhythm game, though I guess both might apply?).

Anyway, around here is when the cpu market really exploded. There were at least five companies making x86 chips (Intel, AMD, Cyrix, IDT, and VIA, the latter of whom I understand created the ITX form factor I currently love and use). When Intel moved from Socket 7 (this motherboard) onto the next cpu socket (actually a horizontal slot, iirc), the other companies banded together to continue the socket and even enhancing the spec further. Intel stopped the support at 233MHz (Wikipedia says there was a 300MHz variant, but I think it was mobile only??), but the others pushed it all the way to 550MHz. I remember that I had a K6, a Cyrix 6x86, and an IDT WinChip. They're in a box somewhere for nostalgia, maybe it'll resurface someday.

Beyond that, I got an Athlon but don't remember the specific model, then I got a Phenom II X4, and last year I replaced it with a Ryzen 5 2600. The latter I'm pretty stoked to someday upgrade to a Zen 2 or greater processor. Oh, I also have a bunch of phones and tablets and a Chromebook with one of those Mediatek processors and an i7-powered laptop from 2012 and a Zotac ZBOX which must have some sort of processor. And video game consoles, but I'm not about to crack those open to see what's inside. :P

Well, this was fun. :D

Not sure about the specifics for the earlier as it's been years lol, anyway:

Intel pentium III or IV for my first (family) pc I think
Intel pentium M - a couple of acer travelmate tablet pc
Intel core 2 duo - msi laptop
Intel i7 5820k - my first cpu going back to using pc after using laptop for years
AMD Ryzen 7 1700 - first time going with AMD, quite satisfied so far lol

I don't really remember what my family computer ran on in the 90s, so I'm going to guess a bit. I'm also only going with my main PC, as listing every random side PC I have would be a bit much. I still have most of these. A lot of them are still in working machines.

1. 386 @ 40 MHz (my dad kept this one until the late 90s)
2. AMD K6-2 @ 500MHz (2000-2003 The first PC that I owned myself)
3. AMD Athlon XP 2000+ (2003-2005 palomino core)
4. AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (2005-2006 Barton core. Overclocked like a champ)
5. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 (2006-2009)
6. Intel Core i5 750 (2009-2018) Overclocked by 1.3 GHz. One amazing CPU, and easily one of the best PC part purchases I've ever made)
7. AMD Ryzen 7 2700x (2018-now. So far this one is pretty great)

I'm tempted to grab a Ryzen 3 once I find out how well the do in the older motherboards, but honestly there's no real hurry for me to do so. The 2700x performs just fine, and has been fantastic in transcoding video to put on my Plex server.


Edit:

I also have a box of random Pentium 2 and 3s that I use in my retro DOS PC. They're fun since they use the Slot 1 interface, and I can swap them out super easily if a certain game doesn't run right on faster clock speeds.

I'm amazed at how far back some of you can remember in detail. I recall some specific machines from my childhood--there's an 8086 in there, definitely a 286 and 486 (can't remember if we skipped over 386), and a procession of Pentiums broken by at least one AMD K6 and possibly even a Cyrix chip. In terms of specific chips, though, I had to dig through records to find some of these, and I only got as far back as 2005:

2005: Athlon 64 3000+
2007: Core 2 Duo E4300
2008: Core 2 Quad Q9550 (it was a really sick sale, I got it for 60%+ off!)
2012: i5 3570k
2017: Ryzen 5 1600

If I had to guess, before that Athlon I was probably running a Celeron of some sort, and definitely at one point a Celeron 300A (because those were hot shit back in the day) but I couldn't tell you exactly when.

I think I has this written down somewhere... Right, here we go:

• AMD 486 DX2 80 MHz
• Intel Pentium 133 MHz
• Intel Celeron 400 MHz
• Intel Celeron 566 MHz
• Intel Celeron 1200 MHz
• Intel Pentium 4 2,4 GHz
• Intel Pentium 4 3,4 GHz
• AMD Athlon 64 3700+
• AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+
• Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 2,67 GHz
• Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2,83 GHz
• Intel Core i7 3820 3,6 GHz
• Intel Core i7 6850K 3,6 GHz

That's not counting whatever countless PCs I have access to at work and my notebooks.
