My 4790K is still killing everything I throw at it.

hardware should be used until it fails unless does not do what is needed.

Or until the new stuff is so much more efficient that continuing to run the old stuff is no longer worth the electricity.

(With the calculation including manufacturing emissions for the new stuff, BTW.)

You got a rough estimate what yeah this product would be?

Fx 8100? 2012?

[–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Probably not that new, at least including manufacturing emissions.

Best I'm willing to guess without research is "newer than mid-1990s," since I'm pretty sure those are outperformed by <1W microcontrollers these days.
