"How bad is this $5000 PC from 10 years ago?"
Me: using a $800 PC from 10 years ago
Mine is from fall 2009, so almost 10 years old and was a 600€ retailer setup (so most likely not well optimized). Over the years I added more ram (from a different manufacturer) to 8gb total, a better graphics card (GTX 970), a better cpu cooler two ssd and a quite power supply. CPU and motherboard stayed the same (that's the parts Linus is testing).
So my system clearly is worse than what Linus is testing. I still can play Overwatch on ultra with 60+ fps in 1080p while watching youtube in 720p on the other screen. I don't play graphics heavy games, I don't do video editing, and I don't care about 4k videos with my 1080p screens, but I'm actually not surprised at all, that a $5000 CPU+motherboard from the same time, gets a decent performance with the parts he added.
My cpu is an Intel core i5-750.
When the described using photoshop as basically unusable... that is better than most normal employees would get unless you work at a company that specializes in Photoshop
@@meni2410 ok
Im running a 2009 i3 550 stock @3.20ghz 4mb, 8gb ddr2 ram, AMD r9 200 series gpu , acpi x64 board, and a 5400rpm 1TB HDD. Added a new power supply after i decided on a gpu (850 w overkill for upgrades that never happened cuz the tower is ass).
@@LtksK i love when you said your cpu in the end lol
When you realize your pc is worse than a 10 year old pc.
A 10-year-old $5,000 PC, don't forget
Actually it's closer to 13 years old now. But yeah, it about as fast as my Asus G74Sx-bbk7 from nearly 10 years ago except that it draws more power and crashes more often as opposed to my laptop which can run Photoshop 2021 without any hiccups.
And this laptop cost $1200 back in 2011. Probably worth only $150 nowadays...
I'm curious how much this $5000 desktop degraded down to in 2021.

Dude i watch both of you guys with my gf... Now she wants a gaming pc and is looking at my p30 pro weirdly and asking me if i want a clear version
So, this basically proves that a good system is essentially futureproofed and can last at least a couple console generations. I mean not a lot of people are going to run their computers at 4K due to the amount of memory and bandwith that would use. 1080 would would be sufficient for this system.

I like how excited he is about "modern" Win 10 being responsive on that aged monster. Plug in an SSD and it will run smoothly on almost any machine thats still alive. I run a phenom II X4 945 (from 2009) myself which was low budget at that time without any problems. And even gaming ist still good to okay (depending on the game) with a GTX 960 (2015). Not 4k of course (You don't throw 4k at 1080-Ladies, Linus!), but the era of throwing away your whole computer every two years are over.
I managed to recently spruce up the same motherboard you mentioned. A new PSU and SSD and cleaned up the fans and dusty areas. Just needed some new thermal paste and I am hoping to keeping it for a bit longer. As for the WIN-10 installation, I preferably stopped some programmes running in the background and turned off some window's features so it can run smoothly as it could.
Not going to lie, when he said "let's try something more fair" first thing that popped into my head was Crysis...

@@mi-vanyan9092 GPU's progress rapidly slowed down though, last big jump in performance was in 2016 and since then $ doesn't really buy more performance than in 2016. For example I bought 1060 3 Gb in 2017 for $199. Now if we believe that gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2060-6GB-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1060-3GB/4034vs3646 in the right ballpark, then 2060 being 62% faster should cost ~$322. It's actual cost is about $340 - so pretty much no change in price/performance over the last 3 years. If this trend continues GPU's might live just as long as CPU's
@@artemaung5274 Well I would at least compare it with a 1060 6GB ^^
I'd love to see what Linus could do with the 2004 Dell server workstation I used regularly up until maybe a year or so ago.
It’s kind of funny that Linus is making a big deal out of this board selling for $650 and now we’re well on our way to that being the new reality for a lot of “gaming” focused motherboards.
I know Asus and MSI currently have a few gaming/enthusiast AM5 and Raptor Lake boards that are priced at $800-$1,200.
yeah fr i was looking for a new motherboard to upgrade my cpu and i saw some that were 700 bucks its insane.
how are these "gaming" focused motherboards any better from normal MB? Or are they just gimmick?
@@syl_ouette You get what you pay for, unless it's an ASUS board.
"Gaming" as a prefix now just adds over 500% the regular price to anything huh
@@Jenna_Talia there actually are somewhat reasonable justifications in some cases. But it’s not because the boards are necessarily better for gaming. Ultra robust power delivery is basically solely for extreme overclocking. If you’re running your CPU at stock speeds, stock voltage, etc, it really doesn’t impact you at all. Lower to mid tier chipsets are plenty capable of moderate overclocking. Running precision boost overdrive and a memory overclock for example is perfectly doable without any of those insanely priced upper tier boards. For the vast, vast majority of people, gamers included, would never have any reason to buy something like the MSI Godlike or the Asus X670E Crosshair Extreme, which is a $1,000 motherboard. Those are for hardcore overclocking enthusiasts.
However, spending more money on a motherboard can make sense if you want a lot of high bandwidth NVMe slots. Lower and mid tier boards come with fewer of them, especially when it comes to slots which support PCIe Gen 4 or Gen 5 speeds. I’ve been using nothing but NVMe storage for a few years now so that’s my primary consideration when shopping for a motherboard.
I just finished building my AM5 system and went with the Asus B650E-E. The power delivery is more than good enough for my needs and despite it being a B-series board, which used to be quite barebones, lacking a lot of higher end features, B-series boards are getting a lot better. This one came equipped with 4 NVMe slots, two Gen 4 slots and 2 Gen 5 slots. I’m currently running two 2TB drives and can easily add two more later if needed. To me, that’s worth paying a higher price. My current B-series board has better NVMe support than my previous X570 board and cost me about the same amount of money - around $300.

i have an i5-2500 and 750ti, Hardware acceleration = enabled BUT 4k youtube gets about 50-60% cpu usage, and 4k60 youtube causes CPU buffering!
Yeah, thats true. But to be true if you place there something like 1050, cheap mainstream card it will still work great. There is no question about 2008 hardware to run 4k, but 2008 hardware supports stuff so you can use all new things with it and it just Works!. Like good USB PCIe card plus GPU like 1050 and to be truth it will work as a charm with modern SSD and mainstream games.
In my opinion this is good argument for people without money for PC. Buy old platform with good Core2Quad CPU. But used GPU like 960 or 970 to this PC and USB PCIe Card and you have PC that runs 90% of games. And I'm sure that AAA titles with 720p resolution and setting and Low/Medium will go easly above Console 30FPS minimum.

I always smirked at the performance of my early cheese-grater MacPro some 8, 10 years on that could still keep up. You had to get over the SATA problems, but with SSDs, slightly newer CPUs, and a full rack of (then cheap) RAM, it had a long life of decent performance. It was also a dual processor rig, Xeon of course. I threw way more than 8GB, I think 16 or 32 GB in it.

Overl0rd from the Forum here! Thanks for the shout out at the beginning Linus :D Skulltrail is a truly fantastic no-expenses-spared platform. IMO one of the last times Intel really showed they cared about the enthusiasts. and I’m happy to see it’s getting some attention again. For those looking for more information and testing on Skulltrail, over the last year I’ve made a ton of in-depth content on my channel including gaming and overclocking.
A couple of points I would like to point out
-While the QX9775 CPUs are the most awesome way to go on this platform. It will work just fine with regular 771 Xeons and back then a TON of people went that route. The board will also work just fine with a single CPU. Especially the CPUs with a 1333MHz FSB have great OC headroom (as 5400 chipset runs out at around 430MHz bus speed) and could potentially reach beyond 4GHz. Overclocking the QX9775s is rather straightforward, mine do 4GHz at 1.41V. Just make sure to have proper cooling on not just the CPUs, but also active cooling on the north bridge and the FBDIMMs; those will get up to around 90C.
-Despite the fact that the drivers of the Nforce 100 chips are troublesome in Windows 10, SLI should work fine using PCIe 2 and 4 (I have tested this personally). The problems are less under Windows 7, but still present.
-16GB of RAM is definitely supported out of box. I personally run 4x4GB 667MHz overclocked to 800MHz. To do this you do have to have the latest BIOS version, as more memory config options were only added later on.

That question has been replaced by: Can it Ray Trace Minecradt?
@@thatrealba can it race trace roblox
_How was this missed!_
And what about the quintessential "Can it run Doom?" Asking it using a dual Xeon of that era equipped with 32GB of FB-DIMM (eight slots helps a bit)
they should make a dual cpu socket mobo for threadrippers. that would be sick and idk what you would use it for but it would still be sick

@@thevisi0naryy that is factual, hmmm I guess it wouldn't be as wild or as uncommon power wise
@@Ajallday1010 There's a couple reasons why. The biggest one is that the latency of trying to use two cpu's on different sockets is huge, they cant work together and communicate fast enough for it to be beneficial (most of the time).
But for the most part if you have tasks that benefit from lots of cores, you can pretty much get however many you need in a single cpu. There are server cpu's reaching up into the 64 core range. When this motherboard was made in 2010, I think the highest core count cpu was 6 cores. Crazy right? Thats only 11 freaking years.
And while thats really cool, most of the software me or you would use would not see any practical benefit from that amount of cores. Maybe even worse depending on the software.
There are, actually. System76 sells a few. Though looking at the overall specs, having 2 processors is the least impressive part.
In 2009 I 've build Asus L1N64 (outdated mobo evev in that time) platform with two Opterons 2356. 8 cores in total an 8GB registered ECC RAM. Everything for low price from old stocks. It was runnig same efficency as 3x more expensive platforms from that time. Had to play a bit with BIOS as geniune mobo was for Athlon FX and Opteron version was still too expensive . The final result was great. The most expensive part was Athlon FX as I needed it to hack the BIOS from regular to server version (WS to WS/B). It was my favourite PC ever.
My family was gifted one of these from a friend that works on concert light shows n stuff. We had no idea how much it cost to put together.

now, put a video card from 2008 (which doesn't decode 4k video) in it, cause that's the only reason it's able to
@uhh so that there would be no bottleneck from the gpu and you can see the processors performance mostly
More entertaining to see what the system from back then would perform like, not with a card from the "future". Glad I read this comment, now I don't even wanna watch the video.

this is actually really interesting to me... i'm running on a mac mini server from 2012... and i find it pretty damn usable. i upgraded the main drive to SSD and maxed it to 16 gb ram... its only the 2.3ghz lower speed model. I never really max it out making music on ableton, and premiere can do 1080p editing if i limit the preview resolution. I can run photoshop no problem. It doesn't game well, and barely runs CS go on lowest settings, but its interesting to see old hardware still hold up to modern tasks
Really puts a perspective on "future proofing"
No one says that future proofing means eternal future immunity.
Bulletproof vests don't make you immune to bullets, just a bit more resilient.
It just describes a necessity for upgrade being further away than some other product, whether it's a short/mid/long-term performance with few or many features etc that may or may not be very common now, but it will be eventually, but still not so far away, that purchasing a completely new product might be a necessity. :)
Future proofing works for like 3 years, by then most people upgrade again.
@@xxxod i mean when it comes to some things its future proof like psus right? If you get a 1600w psu idk why you would have to upgrade any time soon
Jo-E using a psu is based on the power consumption of your system for example your cpu was the 65watts and your gpu was 220 watts then you should get a bare minimum of 450 watts just so you don’t bottle neck instead of getting a bare minimum psu if you get a 1600watt psu it’s not necessary for your system on top of that power efficient increase as thing tend to progress but again that is not a reason to get low watt psu as things like overclocking or even in instances of more powerful hardware still requiring more power
@@hexados7479 You could run two 3090’s and 10900k and still not hit the limit with a 1600 watt power supply.

Like my old core 2 quad(lead melter) it's just not quick anymore. I think the problem was a lot to do with SATA 1, I had a RAID that helped but still. 8 cores and 3GHZ should be ok but those old cores do much less each cycle. If you put a NVME on the PCIE it might be a little better but it's not bad for it's age.

Not a fair comparison since modern CPUs have H.264/HEVC/VP9 decoding.
actually, you have to run task manager in stay on top mode for those kinds of game crashes. I think its something about a crashed game being in full-screen. But ending the task works fine. I have to do that with (heavily modded) skyrim all the time.

I had one of these back in the day - a friend from Intel helped me purchase all the parts :) - back then RUclips used Flash Player.
