| 1384982 | 2014-09-29 05:20:00 | Well I'm still using one and I run a couple of fairly intensive CAD programs on mine, no intention of upgrading for another year or so if nothing goes wrong | gary67 (56) | ||

| 1384984 | 2014-09-29 09:52:00 | I was using a 3Ghz dell optiplex 755 which is a core 2 Duo with 2GB of RAM and installed windows 8 with media centre on it. It worked surprisingly well, full hd playback with ease and general browsing worked really well. I only replaced it as I ended up with a lot of spare parts from my experiment with litecoin mining. |
