Can you even set 32-bit rendering on a V3 in quake 3? I'm not going to pretend that I am an OpenGL guru, as I still learning, but... All color arithmetic is done in normalized 0..1 float, however those values are encoded in textures as integers. For 32bit textures it's 8 bits per color channel, for …

So is this PCI(regular) USB 2.0 faster than motherboards own USB 2.0 ? No. Speed of a chain of buses is always capped at the speed of the slowest bus in that chain. So, this card USB is as fast as usb 2.0 is. Board USB ports are usually connected via PCI or PCIe interfaces, so they should be as …

I'd consider Visual Studio 2003 as a mere minimum - as it has an STL library that actually works. Unlike earlier versions.

Get yourself an NVMe SSD and you'll be set for a while! Does it really offer some advantage compared to SATA SSD... other than nice big numbers in synthetic benchmarks and zero compatibility with older PCs? :lol: Depends what you are doing. For an average facebook/youtube/porn/games user, there is …

I had this board in my first PC. I recently even almost got one, was edged by a hair. Madly jealous, frankly. I want my PC back 🙁

Bought a lot of five Socket 5/7 pentiums. Three 100mhz, one 200mhz and one most likely dead, most likely 233mhz mmx. Untested, and I yet don't have a proper ecosystem. But... soon :>

You can deliver the same power through USB 2.0, it's just not within the official spec, but it can work, if both sides agree on it. In practice, devices will either be fine with the low-power of standard USB 2.0 or will have external power anyways. Well. In practice 2.0 2.5" hdd enclosures require …

Probably because USB 3.0 over PCI is bogus. PCI overall bandwith is about 1Gbps and is shared between all devices. Your USB3 device will not get anything remotely sufficient to utilize its capabilities; it may hardly be worth it over USB2. That is obviously true, but bandwidth is not all. There is …

If I recall correctly all quake games had a scripting language and an "autoexec.cfg" file on the "baseq2" ( in your case ) would be executed automatically on the game start. For an endless loop all you need to do is to execute a file from itsself, so for an endles loop it should be something like: …

Just about any PCIE card can be modified to fit into 1x slot. Either by opening the slot ( which might not be the doable here ) or by hacking off some of the edge connector of the card. Some DIY tutorials how to do it are on the net. Theoretically, it should be possible to hack off Titan V to work …

Hello there. This is going to be my first post. I have recently ( as in: three months ago ) been struck with a little bit of nostalgia bug, and have, with the use of regular lurking on Vogons, built two PCs meant for retro gaming. [random blether, you can ignore] I got my first PC in november 1995. …
