Im amazed at how far we've come since the Mega hertz craze of the 90s, faster clocks speed, cramming millions of transistors into a silicon die, and now we got a recent CPU from the late 2000s and early 2010s to compare now. Pentium processor: 1 core (standard) Clock speed: 60-300 Mhz Launched: March 22, 1993 Phased out: July 15th, 1999 Transistor count: 3.1 to 4.5 million transistors (depending on cpu model) AMD ATHLON II X4 650: 4 cores (four threads) Family: Athlon II x4 Clock speed:3.2 Ghz Launched: 2011 (Athlon II line: 2009) Phased out: N/A Transistor count:N/A
