Oh, loads of power. The CPU is spec'd for 125W and would be completely outclassed by a 65W Ryzen 5 1600 (150% cores, 300% threads, each thread probably 2x performance) and the rest of the system likely draws another 100W or so. It's irritatingly reliable and my house server needs really don't encompass a lot of CPU power, so replacing it hasn't been a priority.
- bloopernova 8y ago> irritatingly reliable This made me laugh. I have an AMD Sempron 3850 cpu+gpu sitting in a small case under the TV that has been chugging along for 5 years now. The somewhat recent addition of a cheap SSD has increased its usability even more. As much as I'd like to replace it with something more up to date, I can't justify it while it's still working fine. It's funny to think of what is "good enough" for a lot of needs.
