Define your notion of "reasonable" for price and for performance.
Stefan "who finds a Core2 Duo to offer reasonable performance"
I'll rock a Core2 Duo: 64 bit 2.6 GHz dual core CPU, 4 GB DDR2 800 MHz RAM, Intel integrated graphics. The Core2 Duo is the first processor I considered to be good enough to run until death! The Core2 Duo certainly does not have anything on my 8 × AMD Ryzen 7 4700U with Radeon Graphics and 16GB RAM.
