About pentium 1

what is the speed of a pentium 1 computer

Google is your best friend. You wont usually get a direct answer from the regulars here with asking a question you can get with a little research so Im going to be the nice guy here and risk getting a thrashing and help you out:

Im going to take a beating for you now so you will learn and not make the same mistake twice. =)

thats not correct

pentium 1's are actually VERY slow

but are ideal for running such advanced operating systems as Windows 95 .
I recommend 32 mb of RAM , but you can get by with 16 if you dont mind waiting even longer

PS englandr753 is completely correct , but people just think Im being even more grumpy than usual if I tell them to think for themselves [ which most people seem to hate ]

You had a high enough fps anyway...

darn...

I'm like 100fps only

I like it that I don't need great hardware to play fun games...

Graphics aren't everything, nor is bloat.

exactly, which is why many people loves valve, they gives you the option to have the latest and greatest, or the rusty bucket of crap and still can play their games.

i would love to see wow in full high detail glory, or crysis on a 8.1 card, but chances are, that isn't going to happen.

i remember my old 486 (or eas it a pentium?) keychains lol, but now with multi cores, if a core or two fails, they just disables them and sells them as less cored versions... no more keychains for cheap lol (and at 300 a pop, a i7 keychain is way out of question, even the sempron or celeron option isnt good)

i started on a Pentium (something, maybe II or pro lol) when I was 5 in 1995, playing a nice CD with some sonic games and other misc games, then I moved on to transport tycoon when it was finally available, funny as I still play the delux version every now and then on my I7.

I can't tell the difference either. But I run it that high because I can, which is something I couldn't do before in any game. The game is too fast-paced to need AA at all really. Too bad you still can't enable triple-buffering in many games without running V-sync as well. I hate V-sync.

Relative to today's CPUs, it's about as fast as change in the republican party. Between 66 - 200 MHz for the non MMX version. With that you could, umm, run a fire wall, or a very low traffic linux web server.

I think over 75MHz is all you would need to play the original quake (90MHz for QII). You could also play doom II or something on it. Win 9x if your don't have anything better to do.

The original Pentiums were 60 and 66mhz.

The original Pentiums were indeed 60 and 66mhz, running on a 60 and 66 mhz bus, respectively.
Later, running on a 50, 60, and 66mhz bus with a 1.5 multiplier were the P75, P90 and P100.
Wow, it has been a long time since we discussed the advantages of "super pipelineing".
