No, it wasn't good, yet alone "best", it was just extremely widespread.

The 1ghz athlon

You weren’t there in 2006

it was just a very common CPU

It only came out in 2007...

You obviously weren't.

athlog 64

Core 2 Duo was what finally got Intel out of the huge slump it was in and was around the time I started in electronics. Amd hasn't really come back since

Figures, since you're clueless.

2500k

i7 2700k

Athlon

Intel 80386

The Phenom 1 was literally broken.

doesnt exist

phenom 4x has fake cores.

phenom 4x or 6x, overclocked is still out performed wildly by a c2d

weak as shit unless oc'd and good boards for ocing it are impossible to find for a reasonable price
p4 was better
no such thing
no

Intel 4004

8080

The m68k baby. Zoomers repent. *sips monster*

>thread about the best processor
>it's a bunch of gamer retards posting single socket consumer trash
It wasn't the best, though, it was just cheaper, and later on easier.

Since you didn't specify what kind of processor, there's only one valid answer.

This
Or the 6510

E6600

I'm partial to amd k-6/k-7 processors myself. They were fucking amazing in their day.

Pretty sure the K6 had garbage FP performance and both it and the K7 were fucked on cache and unisocket only. Great on a budget but never really great on a purely technical basis.

>Amd hasn't really come back since
Is that really what Incels call it when AMD has been wiping to floor with Intel's housefires for the last year and a half?

Intel fanboys are pathetic.

Unironically this.

Though I'd have to argue the first AMD FX 8-core is a close second.

>first AMD FX 8-core
The original FX-8150 kinda sucked ass because it cost more than a 2500K and barely beat it on multi core where FX is supposed to shine, but things got really cool in 2012 when the FX-8350 drops for $195 with a 4GHz base clock and is throwing blows with a locked i7 3770 on the multi core.

So I still have my 8350 and have had it for 5 years as of last month. It is still going strong and takes OCing like a rock hard cock in a moist vagina

The FX 8 cores take voltage like a mofo, 1.45v makes mine do 4.6 and it hasn't even degraded because the 9590 has a 1.5v stock voltage.

I ran Skyrim at max settings on a P4 2.8ghz with a 8800 Ultra. (took awhile to get a mb with p4 socket + PCIE)

Shit was cash and probably the longest lasting CPU I had.

Been on a 8370 @ 4.6 for like...four years now?

>Stock volts

> wiping the floor
> amd still can't create a multicore cpu with a single core as good as intels
really makes you think.. of how retarded and broke amd losers truly are.

not a real cpu, just a meme for poor people.

Damn user, is that even stable? the 8370 is a nicely binned chip but my 8350 can only achieve it's 4.2 turbo clock on prime95 when given a steady 1.35V

The 2700X is throwing blows with a $500 9900K, while using less energy and making less heat user, that's not a good thing even if it beats it by a 10-20% in gaming.

A 4.5GHz 8350 gets the same Cinebench score as an i7-4770, it's no joke of a CPU.

Newfag to PC building here...can someone explain the voltage aspect and why it's a factor when buying a CPU?

The voltage doesn't matter if the CPU holds the clock speed table, less voltage at any given clock speed is better cause you make less heat, the 8350 can just take a shit ton of voltage before the chip degrades itself or dies outright.

486 DX2-66

probably one of these: Motorola 68040, DEC Alpha EV6, UltraSPARC II, or MIPS R4000.
POWER9 is shaping up to be the best this generation, and there seems to be resurgence in everyone making their own highend proc since moores law has stalled, ARM, IBM, Intel, AMD, and Nvidia are all trying to make their own answer to increase performance in the very highend, not to mention RISC-V.
RISC style ISA's are coming back since now the only way to increase performance is to optimize, so concepts like pipelining and SIMD (i.e. AVX-512) are being pushed for more.

>unironically defending intel
yikes lol

The Z80 is pretty high up there also.
