Re: Some 486 MOBOS I'm thinking to get

in Milliways
Something to think about is PCI versus VLB. Having PCI greatly increases the number of cards you can use. However I am sure there are those who would say you need VLB for the "authentic" 486 experience. Just my opinion - I'd stay away from the middle one just because it had a varta battery on it :( …

Re: Some 486 MOBOS I'm thinking to get

in Milliways
The first board is a DataExpert EXP4044 . It does not support a 386, it's just a regular Socket 3 board. It appears to be a decent enough board, although I do see one possible issue: even though it has a DX4 installed, and the documentation says it supports 3.3V CPUs, I don't a voltage regulator …

Some 486 MOBOS I'm thinking to get

in Milliways
Ok here are 3 Mobos I'm willing to put my hands on. Once again I don't know the brand or model and it is quite difficult to me to identify them, but they look pretty good to me.

Hello guys, I would like to hear your opinions on this sound card. I have the chance to get it for 20euros including shipping. Is it worth it? Is it a good substitute to a SB16?

Re: Help with total Graphic Cards Value

Exactly, assuming that they all work. Mi intention is to resell them on ebay. Assuming I could get 10 euros for each it would be a good deal. But, that is maybe assuming too much. Specially because as you said, there's nothing particularly rare in that lot. I think you'd be mad to buy that lot, …
