GTX 1050 / GTX 950 is probably the sweet spot. 1050s are more power efficient though and a lot of them don’t require a 6 pin PCIe connector either. Maybe even a 960 if you can get a good deal on one (or if you can find one cheaper than a 1050 which is often the case here in Australia!)
and does its rival the AM3 (Phenom II) install win 11 24h2 with requirements disabled? It'd be interesting to find out, and see if the bios is up to date for the core2quad 6600 and see if that changes things. Could also let it try to boot it off a DVD version.
Surprised by the performance of this pc ngl ty for the video Matty
Well done, I use a Q9505S in my Server rn w/ 16 gig DDR3 & ubuntu, does everything I ever need
Cheers, mate💪🏼Thanks for watching!
I used to dream about owning a quad core processor. Now i scoff at the thought.
If you don't game and just need something for office work and internet the Q6600 with a Quadro K600 and 4 GB ram will work perfectly!
I have a core 2 quad extreme mb cpu combo. Looking to get that up and running, just looking for what to pair with it.

@@mattydemisestreams Sorry I should have clarified, I want it to be period correct, so a GPU that is 2007/2008ish.
@@RobertFixitgtx 260/270/280
@@mattydemisestreams yeah but it can still go higher to squeeze every bit of performance out of it
A modified windows 10 iso is way better than windows 11
Valid!
you can run modified windows 11 isos too though
@@patg108 but windows 11 is not as good and has a lot more Spyware built in
@@Vanillaflavouredcheese says the guy installing modified ISOs
@@malachkah you're not wrong but I find modifications to windows 10 are easier and more reliable since people have been doing it for longer.

I do have an AM3 board and a Phenom CPU somewhere around here I can test this out on. I’ll record something and upload it.
@@mattydemisestreams original Phenom is AM2 though
core2quad isn't the best anymore by a long shot but its still viable for day to day use save for modern gaming. But its far from useless
try newer games like alan wake 2 or gta V 😅
Imagine how much this system will chug trying to run Alan Wake 2 lmao
@mattydemisestreams 😂 my i5 6400 and rx480 is doing only 9fps.. maybe 1 fps for that device 😁
@@joshmarvz Ouch! Better stick with older titles until you upgrade😅
Since when is gta v a "newer" game?
@@Vanillaflavouredcheese do you know the meaning of newer?
