K6 166MHz is part of the K6 Series which were direct competitors to Intel's Pentium II brand. They performed slightly worse but were available at a much smaller price making them very competitive products.
Unlike Intel's Pentium II CPUs, they did not offer any L2 Cache.

And mine's 376% worse than yours, and so is my GPU.
I can't wait to get this CPU and be able to open more than 3 windows! :D
Before looking at the specs, enjoy the name with 'enhanced' in it :D
Whoa?
totaly wrecks the i7 995 6 core in a comparison, wish i had this total best! K6 FTW
TDP is so low, I'm gonna freeze here hahaha
Ah the K6, you will be put down as a true legend.
Uses less power than a modern light bulb does today. :O
……. How did I get here?
I'm wondering the same thing right now. It must be like that sid of YouTube…
Hahah :)
I see, so I may be on the right path here :D
You are.
I'm in this conversation too!
Holy crap, I forgot about this :P
Me too. Man, we were sneaky back then xD
Haha, those were the days :P
Thinking back, I still don't how I ended up on this page :/
Pip had made a quiz, one of the questions was "Which is the lowest rated CPU on GD?"
Nah, I don't think it was that. Most likely I was just exploring and stumbled in here xD
I don't remember if you were participating in the event, but that's definitely how wolcan, Emils and I got here :D
Oh right, I don't even know :P
Bump
A wild Tero appears!
Don't bump discussions ples. Thread locked hurr durr.
Don't mind me, I'm just working on becoming a mod over at [any other gaming site].
hello!!
Awkward entrance
Hello…
Well it looks like this discussion is alive again. You know what, let's make this the longest thread on GD. If I'm right, we only need around 145 more posts. Go go go.
How did I get here? Hey there everybody!
The internet works in strange ways, Zero. And I'm guessing you paid a visit to the global notifications page :P
Around 143 to go.
There is no way out… Unless you see "Exit --->" sign. But you certainly won't fond one here.
Let's set a record! -142 to go :D
There is no way out. The "Exit" sign has been removed especially for this. You cannot turn back.
About 141 left.
You should consider putting it back 140 posts down the road. I don't want to die here.
What is it about this post? I started this over a year ago and people just keep on coming xD
@Banana it's too late for that. That decision is not yours to make anymore :P
@SJ I know, right? I guess this particular page is just too awesome :D And please, don't break the string- around 138 left.
The legend of almighty K6 survives - No matter what!
-137 left
And now for something completely random…
Bananas are cool.
Fact of the day: Bananas contain bit of radioactivity.
135ish left
Huh, that really was random. I wonder if eating bananas will give you rads in Fallout 4.
134?
yeah 133 left!
Oh hi, didn't see you there. How are the New Year's preparations going for you guys? Everything is fine and dandy here.
132, I think.
yup it's 2 hours for new year and it's awesome here and what's happening in germany?131 left
haven't you guys started? :)
Actually, I'm in Bulgaria right now, I just didn't bother to edit my profile. We prepared the food and the fireworks, so now we wait. It's still only 4:20 (blaze it) here.
Is it 2015 in India already? :D
128-ish
we've also prepared the fireworks and i'm so excited :))
nope 4 hours left :) 126 left
Ah, I see. Well at least the fun part has started on your end, all I can do here right now is wait. But there's gonna be a lot of explosions going off over here, so I'm really hyped as well :D
its coooool bro!!!
do you still have your gtx 560 bro? :)) 123
I do, but I left that PC here so my parents have something to use. I'm on my lappy now. Not really the best for 1080p gaming, but at least DotA 2 and CS:GO run well. It only has to hold for another month or so, then it will be retired as a war veteran.
123?
oh i see and why do you want this conversation to be the longest?
Well we keep reviving it randomly every now and again, why not have an excuse for doing so :D We don't need to make it the longest ever right away, just at some point. Maybe once a new generation of processors is released more people will visit this page.
yup!and i miscounted!! 119 left
Well I'm just gonna trust you on this, since the number is getting lower. 118?
and which is the longest conversation in GD?117
wonder who has this beast of a cpu?116?
No one does, but it'll be up for display in museums pretty soon. The longest discussion was either on a blog or an article, but I can't remember which one. I'm not even entirely sure about the amount of posts.
115
Why should we stop? Let's keep it going!
ok then!!
it is 111 now
Is there a weaker CPU than this one?
Indeed there is - feast your eyes!
75Mhz? Wow.
Hmmm…take 166 and subtract 75. You get 91. Multiply 9 and 1, square root the 9. Half-Life 3 confirmed!
yeah! and i'll be doing the voice of gordon freeman :) 107 :))
I didn't think Gordon would ever talk!
that's why i am doing his voice :))
What kind of voice should Gordon have?
