Just tested my old Athlon 64 3700+ & Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600.
Everything working fine, just need two graphics cards, cases and hard drives.
What can I possibly use these two setups for these days? I don't even think they can handle 1080p...

Used to have a Q6600 and a gtx 750 ti and had a blast with a lot of games as long as I knew I wasn't going to max out anything.

They actually make awesome programming test rigs.
I have a single core 2.8GHz P4 (I shit you not) running XP that I squirt code down for testing.
If it's too slow or throws up a "can't load DLL", I return to my devbox and fix it.

XP/POSReady 2009 machine with SMB and internet access disabled, Getting 4 or 8GB DDR2 is going to be expensive if you're going to do modern-ish stuff on them. Or a power hungry file server.

the fuck is intel core 2 quad? It's quad core. Probably a shitty one, that got severely smoked by the i7 920 @ OC'ed at 4 Ghz released less than 2 years later.
That i7 is so good it's relevant even for modern games when paired with a decent GPU. I used it till 2016, and upgraded to X5650 (9+ year old CPU), which is basically the same arch. as i7 920, except 32nm and 6 cores. Can't say the same about your shitty Q6600 or the even shittier Athlon 64.

Who the fuck would want to program for fucking netburst?

Is the core 2 quad suseptible to the intel exploits?

Meltdown and Spectre affect Intel CPUs going back to the Pentium III.
