Also looking for it. Apparently there was a "TMS34082 3-D Graphics Library Update Kit, v2.00 Software and User Manual". (From https://groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.ti/c/apI … /m/ftvjQnwV8LkJ )

....... I mean Duke3D was recompiled for 386, maybe the compiler has Nx586 as target as well? Could be worth a try. Also the Nx586 can be switched to run native RISC86 code. At this point I must consider this mythical ability of Nx586 to be a an urban legend. I've scoured over every bitsavers 5x86 …

I toyed with an idea of building a 286, but then.. PC really came to shine as gaming platform from around 1992 when 286 was obsolete. And pre 90s games were almost always developed for other platforms (with better graphics/sound) and then ported to DOS. An AMIGA 500 or 1200 will be a much better …

How do you "bump the pixel clock"? AFAIK, pixel clock is a combination of resolution and refresh rate. …

For me it's fascination with artefacts of the past. Some collect ancient pottery or paintings - for me those are just boring dead things. On the other hand a CPU is a little machine with millions of parts, maybe it's been sitting dormant in somebody drawer for 30 years but when plugged into a mobo …

Time to update my wishlist.

As we know Cyrix 5x86 was manufactured by IBM and SGS-Thomson. According to my research the Cyrix branded chips with the distinctive green heatsinlk were simply marked Cyrix on the underside of the chip. Like can be seen here: back front Except for mine! I got achip with the factory glued heatsinlk …
