> Old quad core won't have all the virtualisation extensions. Intel's first quad core was Kentsfield in 2006. It supports VT-x. AMD's first quad core likewise supports AMD-V. The newer virtualization extensions mostly just improve performance a little or do things you probably won't use anyway like SR-IOV. | ||

Ivy Bridge is 13 years old today. You need to do the the things to buy something older than that in 2025. | ||

Virtualization existed long before virtualization instructions. Not strictly necessary. | ||
