Fucking Intel Atom

What heinous cunt decided that machines like this were necessary ? I've been asked to install win10 on this piece of shit and no word of a lie i have never seen a slower computer. The SINGLE core is at 100% when i right click desktop, windows update has been running for 6 hours, it's at 16%, deleted the softwaredistribution folder twice thinking it was frozen. I get the whole internet of things concept but all it has done is give people a reason to build fucking terrible machines that just should not exist in any situation. Why is intel Atom even a thing ? please someone point out anything good about these peasant tier, wastefuck CPU's

I agree with you, but i Don't see them as worthless. I think they are perfect for the true, truly impoverished people, or for those who need an ultra low-power setup.

Of course, I would only run something like puppy linux on it.
Running something like windows botnet edition would be a terrible idea.

>windows on low end hardware

>single core atom
So you're complaining about a 10 year old netbook CPU being not fast? What the fuck did you expect?

slightly more than what im experiencing. It's not out of choice, im a computer sys engineer and have been burdoned with the task of dealing with this fucking thing

what if
guys what if
someone would've manufactured atom powered routers

Do you really NEED to put Windows on or are you just too stupid to load something less bloated?

fair enough, that makes sense. have they really though ? or are they just putting them into hilariously peasant grade computers ?

i NEED to unfortunately, its a company machine with particular needs and the guy who bought them is a total retard. i would love to

Install gentoo

What made you think that Installing win 10 over other options like gentoo or arch was a good idea ?

(continued) i would love to just install gentoo and be done but the operators of this machine are retards too.

read other posts, made that clear, computer sys engineer, get paid to deal with peoples stupid computer problems

I'd suggest win7 or even XP
Newer windows probably has missing drivers for that
it's going to be a pain using a software rendered aero desktop

I have a dual core (with 4 threads) Intel Atom in my NAS. Its pulls 6.5 watts, passively cooled and is fast enough for my NAS.

yes, that's a nas. about as much power requirements as a fucking calculator

Atoms are pretty nice, I'm replacing my desktop and server with a VM server that has an 8 core Atom

router? already done router os/mikrotik using intel cpu and even celeron works on that .

couldnt find my low quality bait picture................

probably home server, or machine like on supermarket cashier something like that

It's not bait, dumbass. Building a mini ITX computer with an Atom C2750, 32GB RAM, 240GB SSD, 4x4TB HDDs, and a single slot FirePro.

They are CPUs aimed for mobile market. Why are you using W10 ?
You should use Android or very light GNU/Linux distros, not WIndows.

confirmed peasant

Why?

openwrt supports x86

so it IS an old atom? those were truly shit, and belong in the garbage bin

Fucking excuses

Personally for the money you should have just got a regular 1U server. Then you could have added 4 hard drives, redundant power, literally takes up the same space, A pci slot. If you're trying to save money you could buy it second hand for half the price and got a quad core with 8 threads, upgradable ram.

Windows OS in 2016, everybody.
