Because I like 64 bit.
It's quite literally the worst processor architecture Intel made
I am
I use it on both my Tor nodes. Willamette pwns Skylake.

it was free, that whole build costed me 40 bucks.
x64 > ARM64 > x86
Daily reminder that x86 kicks your processor into legacy mode and it starts running like a fucking core 2 duo out of 2002!
>>52006363
Not even bulldozer was that bad. Clock for clock it is literally the worst possible x86 architecture ever made.
Because my non gaming machine has a vastly superior Pentium G3260.

Pentium 4s can run 64-bit OSes.
>>52006316
cause i upgraded to a 4670k in 2013. still have the optiplex gx620 tho
>>52007634
>optiplex gx620
I have one of those sitting here. Goddamn Pentium-D 945. I use it to copy Redbox movies and maintain my movie database.
>>52006416
there is no excuse for this.
>not using based coppermine or tualatin instead
>not using based thunderbird or palomino instead
pentium 4 truly was the meme cpu
>>52006316
too fast 4 me
I had an Athlon 64. Was pretty based.
>>52007594
But we're talking about pentium 4's.
>single-core nuclear heat reactor running at 3.0 GHz for 32-bit operations
How did I tolerate this over a decade ago?
>>52006316
I am
>tfw even today's 40$ chink tablets with atom are faster than my main PC
welp time to upgrade, die already Pentium 4
I used Pentium 4 Northwood until 2007. I can't complain. It wasn't bad.
>>52009047
>not knocking out 2 birds with 1 hyper-pipelined stone
Because I'm using an Athlon 64
