Hello All ,

Kasi tolong tolong ... My budget is 2500.00 ringgit.. just for CPU

mainly casual use .. browsing the internet .. watching YouTube.. office stuff. Sikit Sikit game on steam ( fishing and racing )
The last PC I bought  was way back in 2017.
Now with this budget ..tolong tolong kasi recommend satu CPU .. able to withstand the 10 years usage from from Now 2025

pakai biasa biasa .. I know that now the OS is Windows 11 Pro, so I need to run Windows 11 Pro. With ease for 5 to 8 years to come

Awaiting your recommendation
kam sia kam sia . banyak thank you.

To TS, mind you above wont last you the 10 years your asking mega_shok.gif  and this CPU is from 2 gens ago so 2022 its ady lagi dated.

If you were to compare now its about i5 Sandy Bridge back then, its absolute ewaste by now. So no way this level of computer will last you 10 years lah.

Considering that hardware requirements for basic use has been largely static for now (outside of games of course), it's not hard for a modern machine to last over 10 years - you'll be surprised how usable many of the Sandy/Ivy/Haswell machines with a SSD and sufficient memory icon_idea.gif

Its a fact that PC electronics will degrade over time, I have a few oldies that even with upgraded SSD & full bank of RAM its still not as peppy as I remembered new. Windows is also getting bloated over time so no extra hardware can save that. Mind you I once a while clean WIN reinstalls but after update to the latest the bloat will return.

If its a system you use frequently its time to let go ewaste dump, or give to others who have time to wait it boot.

Yes, but that's just Windows - try something like a reasonably modern and lightweight Linux distro and you'll be surprised how well it works on legacy hardware icon_idea.gif

Linux  shakehead.gif  Too much effort for ancient hardware. Just keep using it in old Windows until a point where its no longer can run.

You are likely stuck in the old mindset laugh.gif
TBH modern versions of Linux isn't that hard to use anymore, with most stuff being preconfigured for you and installation is quite easy too - there's even plenty more community support for Linux desktop OS (thanks to the Steam Deck), so don't worry icon_idea.gif
