The netburst direction would have paved an interesting future, one where both extended and simple instruction set targetting would be natively supported, but with programs compiled using a simpler instruction set could theoretically perform better. Like having a 'psuedo-risc' instruction set which bypassed most of the instruction simplication steps. A compiler with all the time in the world to optimize could spit out more ideal code than the cpu doing it in realtime would.

People is memeing the new intel chips for having crazy TDPs, but at least these are powerful. Does anyone remember the FX-9590? 8 cores and 220w of FLAMING HOT performance (That was still behind contemporary i7 performance)

Hey this short just appeared in my feed, algorithm pushing it out there 👍

Those CPUs are excellent for windows xp builds, though. I suspect that was the intended use case, since there were still a lot of people clinging to XP rigs at that time.

Back in the days i used to own (i still have it, just not rly using it) a Sempron 140 pc, recently found out about the second core in the chip, so I've bought a new motherboard that supports the UCC feature and unlocked my Sempron 140 with 3.6 Ghz. It was still pretty awful and faced some inconvenience during the time I was testing it, but man, I enjoyed every minute of it, the games I used to play as a child with 10-15 fps was amazing with 30-60 fps on the same old nostalgic setup, amazing video man ❤️

Best cpu for squad players

We used to keep one of these at the PC shop I worked at, as most all motherboards supported it so we could test machines and update BIOS if a board didn’t support a newer CPU.

they released the G-T16R about a year after the sempron 130, if embedded stuff counts

I've had success unlocking multiple CPUs from that era. Phenom x2 turning into x4, athlon tri cores becoming quads, etc etc. fun times.

Have not gave a second thought to the Sempron 3800+ in years.

Great video ! And this hairstyles suits you very well man !

Watching this when half of intel CPUs don't work lol

This thing loads GTA slower than a gen1 PS4... Impressive

For a period accurate experience, use 8GB of RAM and a 5400 RPM drive instead of an SSD, heh.

Great video. I have been an AMD user since I built my first home computer - Back In The Day ; LoL

Sempron was analog to the Celeron, thankfully back in 2007 when my mom's colleague from work was helping choosing parts for my build we went to Athlon X2.

Voce voltou !

SO YOU'RE THE GUY THAT STOLE ALL THE GODDAMN FUCKING 5870 X2S

I had a sempron CPU for a bit! It was super cheap and useful for what I paid for it.

That CPU shouldn't be using any OS newer than Windows XP

I remember crypto miners ate up all of these single-core CPUs because they just needed the GPU power

23 minutes to load GTA V is my estimate

I though bro quite the channel. Don’t quit. Your contents are awesome

But that is not even close to the last desktop single-core AMD sold. Their 1core2thread CPU were even available on AM4.

Really showcase how bloated programs are nowadays. Then again windows have always been a hog.

🕸 🤘

Never knew lga 775 got 2c4t before....i thought i3 is the first that have it.

The weak rx 5700 is no match for the mighty sempron!

I owned the 140 and unlocked its hidden core successfully on a budget motherboard. It performed pretty good when it actually came out.

Why not use Linux for a more smooth desktop experience on older chips? I have a friend with a old laptop, that once Silverblue was installed, everything was smooth as fuck. On Windows 10, it was so laggy

Loved the Sempron. The pricing was perfect for a struggling college student and the fact that it was AM3 meant at the time I could always upgrade to something better later. Just had to dumpster dive for the rest of the PC.

old gpus are so funky and fun

The other core might have some defective instructions. That would make a lot of sense, given that clocking it down didn't help

I wish my alcoholic face was as attractive as your's

alright fellas....who did it.....who stole ol boy's top lip?

I have an old Q6600 that easily clocks to 3.2Ghz. It is completely usable as a gaming machine on windows 10 still.

AMD: At the right price,😎this chip is actually good for some one ...... 😂

One CPU, to rule them all, One Core to find them, One Thread to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

incredible versatile of ths boy,, in one video is "real malcolm" in other is "smart Paul Atreides"

great video

Fully Buffered o ¿real malcom in the middle?

for gta 5 30min or 15min

It's so funny to me that the GPU is so underutilized that the fans on it aren't even spinning while playing GTA 5

are you finnish

you are a pimp lmao playing the DS while waiting for gta v to start up

They had two main lines the dual core and quad and up line The chips MADE to be dual core have 1MB L2 core, theyre just set as single core The 512KB ones are MADE to be quad or hex just set as single

Amazing that these long forgotten prototype CPUs end up in the hands of the public and an actual engineer responded to questions. Amazing video!

miss the day when overclocking of such degree and core unlocking) was achievable.

I have a single core Intel, It's a Celeron D 356... 3.33 GHz, and I think it can even be overclocked with a different Mobo

I kept all of my Sempron's and phenom's that would unlock stably, I loved to get a chip that would fit for what I needed then see if I could get a better ship out of it for nearly free. Though I never had a 130.
