I used the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 CPU for an XMR (Monero) mining test.
A few years ago, this CPU was actually decent for mining and everyday workloads 👍
But today… things have changed a lot 😅

The Q9400 was once an OK mining CPU, but in today’s standards it is clearly outdated 🪫
Mining Monero on it is now mostly just for testing or nostalgia purposes rather than real profit 📉
