By popular demand, I decided to push my sanity to using a $45 2001 PC with a single-core CPU for 24 full hours. I tried to pack as much information in here as possible, but you're more than welcome to skip around to certain parts of the video. Time stamps are provided for your convenience!
I did state this in the video, but my gaming experience here was much different than when I tested this PC a year ago. Not really sure what that was about. The performance was cut in half using the same games and the same settings. I tried re-installing drivers and re-installing XP, but no progress. I'm going to look into it a bit more.
