I am looking at a new build with an MSI MS-5169 v4.0 motherboard I have. I haven't decided on a CPU to use. I was curious about trying a Rise MP6. Should I even consider using this CPU or would I be better trying something else. I already have Pentium, K5, K6, Cyrix MII builds, so that is why I was wondering about a this CPU.

While it's certainly interesting CPU from historical point, its performance is quite average. Not worth investment, if you're just curious and don't have it already in collection.

I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.

That is pretty much what I thought. I will probably pick one up to try out and add to my collection and go with a different CPU for the final build.

Thanks!
