Re: Over clocking the AMD 5x86-p75-133 ?

They aren't that different in terms of overclocking. Both will require sufficient cooling to work stable at 180-200 Mhz.
Re: Poor overclocking results on Asus CUV4X-CME (medion 2001)

That's more or less usual VIA 694X overclocking headroom. My ASUS P3V4X has FSB wall at 148 Mhz. The are few boards which will perform better, but CUV4X-M is most likely not one of them.

Simple solution is to 3D print it. With adddional holes for COM, LPT and PS/2. There was topic on vogons with completed 3D model.

Considering that we on Vogons do not value old PSUs, either, is this so bad? "Muh hestary". No to mention "blasphemy" of unboxing old computers (few comments under that video)! You are basically saying that noone should complain about this or something, which is simply untrue. Not really. I'm just …
Re: Question about ET6100 video capture card for sale on eBay
Posted on 2020-09-28, 18:08
My question is could this just be used as a regular ET6100 graphics card without the drivers for the video capture. Most likely yes. I am not going to pay what the buyer is asking, but wondered if it was even worth try to make an offer on the video card. You won't know until you try. Don't expect …

I don't understand why you'd want to use a IDE to SATA converter One of the reasons - because they won't be connected to PCI bus with everything else (sound cards, 3dfx, LAN etc).

OTOH the intent of the person destroying the NOS 5153 There's no info if it was NOS or just well preserved one with packaging. Judging from diskette box, it's the latter. Anyway, like I said before, they've smacked mass produced IBM CRT monitor. That stuff is already well preserved by many …

You're forgetting that it's a typical AT motherboard and 3.3v is not drawed from PSU at all. Instead, onboard VRM is used for 3.3v.

Then have a look at the number of dislikes. Around 30% dislikes. And 11k dislikes over video with 2+ mil views is also nothing special. So my statement is still correct, most of the viewer base either didn't cared much or liked the video.
