dockland Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Almost impossible to answer, it's according to many parameters and the application. I compile libreoffice in around 15-18 minutes with -j16 on my i7 6900k @4.1 in tmpfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinal Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Use at least a 450 watt or greater power supply. I use 450W for dual core X2-255 and E4500 with cheap graphics cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
