NASCAR 2009, in my opinion, next to Everything or Nothing, which is THE best looking ps2 game out there, is pretty good. I mean even NASCAR '10 (which ruined the game for me, stuck with '09 because it was the best looking and most fun NASCAR game on PS2.) looked good.

Can't help but notice, and comment, did everyone in the Western Hemisphere own a Gateway 2000? Lol. Because even my family went through many Gateways at the time, our last most recent one was running windows xp SP0 then we changed it out for an HP, we bought a dual set. One for my dads office and …

While we're on the topic of weird boards, CPUs and stuff, a year or ago I helped scrap an old server my dad had, it was one of the monster quad pentium boards...but it had two motherboards on their side, they both plugged into a mini daughter board on the bottom ofthe case and...each motherboard had …

With my local fry's electronics they still have 486 CPU coolers, 50cents each. Might grab four sometime, would love to see the face of the 20 something thinning at the checkout counter "what's he gonna do with these?" 🤣

Posted on 2013-06-08, 02:10
Now, what is slightly confusing about this thread is, do you mean like "the ideal setup for 95" eg: if someone had the top of the line everything for the era. Or, do you mean what the average joe had? I mean, if you meant that, then you will be dealing with trident cards and maybeeeeee some rage pro …
