I had this CPU before christmas 2016 combined with a GTX 750 ti. I placed diamond in season 2 in Overwatch at 36-38 fps by playing dva and junkrat, I also had over 200 hours on Borderlands 2 and Warframe before the open world update, there was also another game like COD called Blacklight Retribution that I've sunk over 1000 hours at smooth 60 fps though won't recommend this CPU in 2022 by any stretch of the imagination, I remember how hell it was trying to run certain games....
I do remember playing Blacklight in the day, it was fun with a few mates. We would jump on from time to time. Wow placing diamond in overwatch with this CPU is very impressive. I don't think I placed anywhere exciting in overwatch even with much newer hardware. BL2 was such a great game, I have sunk so many hours into this game and all of its expansion packs. A game I still recommend to this ay to people to play as a 4 player coop game. I really would not recommend anything less than a 4 threaded CPU these days for games and that also is kind of not enough for games today. I also don't think the older AMD CPUs had very good single-core performance in comparison to intel of the day and those older AMD CPUs, in the end, still show their slower single-core performance across multiple cores in games. However, it is interesting to see what can still be played on the older CPUs. Some developers really are still catering for older CPUs and It's great to see that they are doing that not to leave anyone out who doesn't meet today's hardware standards. Thanks for watching and leaving some comments, it really stirred up some nice old memories of gaming.
My Athlon was bad at the beginning, the frame sometimes skipped. When I completed the Quests in the game, the processor and graphics switched to a higher performance, and kept its performance. Didn’t need restart. It doesn’t come with additional heat.
Your don't want to use anything to crash hot, since the CPU will be the bottle neck in games, However it really should support any GPU if the motherboard allows it. I would probably recommend something like a GT430, GTS 450, GT630, GTX 550-ti, GTX 650 or GT 730... something along those lines for a GPU. You want something that can support newer APIs of the likes of dx 11 but no point getting anything too extravagant for the age of the CPU. Thanks for watching, We hope that helps.
Nice to see the little chip still putting up a fight 💪🏼
Still going nice
great video, I really enjoyed the look back on the AMD Athlon II :)
Another great video as always man
The review was really fascinating and amazing thanks❤️
Nice video! ♥

Just ordered 6gb extra mem for this machine.. making it total 8gb.. 😊

great video, up to which gpu that cpu supports?

HD7770 is not terascale, it is gcn 1.0
You are correct.
That was a mistake on our behalf.
Good pickup.
Thank you for letting us know.
We have made an amendment in the comments.

My families pc is an HP touch smart with an AMD athlon II.. I upgraded them to an iMac 4k
Outposts in Sea Thieves are where Frame rates go to die.
Sp so true
I got the cpu from a pc a random guy gave for free to me
Install a linux os and it will be still usable for basic tasks
Great idea.
Another great video as always man
Hold on why are there two comments?
🤣
