Re: Win98SE and AMD K-6-II speed check

Melbar, thanks a lot for spending this time on this, this is so helpful. It looks like moving from a 400Mhz CPU to 550Mhz is netting almost twice the framerate. It's easy to forget the pace of change between about 1995 and 2005 in terms of processor speed and what they could achieve. A new CPU one …

AMD X2 3800+ build?

I have a pc with a 3800+ , Radeon 3850 AGP 512mb and 4GBram andAsus A8V Deluxe mobo. The video card and CPU are a little mismatched, and i think even a 4800+ will be holding down the 3850. Is the best way to go to replace the 3850 with something like a Geforce 6800 card?

I would replace it with a HD 5850 or a GTX560. I assume you are running WinXP?

I would replace it with a HD 5850 or a GTX560. I assume you are running WinXP? I don't think those cards exist as AGP. There is nothing wrong with mismatching things. I have the same motherboard and I did put FX-60 cpu there and Geforce FX 5950 ultra video card and installed windows 98 there. Can't …

I would replace it with a HD 5850 or a GTX560. I assume you are running WinXP? I don't think those cards exist as AGP. I'm pretty sure that HD4670 is the most powerful card that came in AGP, and it's not much of an upgrade from the 3850. The best NVidia AGP card is even worse - a 7900GS, with no …

Where is the mismatch? It‘s a solid XP combination - apart from the fact that only 3GB of your 4GB RAM can be used. You have a late AGP system with a late graphics upgrade solution. You can use the additional graphics power to enjoy higher AA/AF levels and max out the resolution and details.. The …

I’ve recently got Ga5AA rev 2.2 and K6-2+ 550 Well, it is capable of running at almost 700 MHz ! However, I was unable to activate cache even at 100 MHz. The Cache memory was then replaced by 1Mb of 4 ns cache EliteMt from the post above. Looks like the tag sram is dead, because nothing was changed, …

Problem is most likely on your side. Try to use VPN.

Either on win-raid or mydigitallife there is talk of using the leaked source to fix acpi.sys so expect those types of links to be deleted here.

Hi, I'd like to help, but my experience with 3D accelerators is limited. The FX5200, though, is something had experience with. I used it many years ago for my sister's PC, so she could get Win 7 running in Aero Glass mode (needs Shader Model 2). From what I can tell, the card is/was quite compatible …

A GeForce2 MX paired with period correct drivers should perform quite well on that CPU. Later Nvidia cards need newer drivers which expect more modern CPUs.

A GeForce2 MX paired with period correct drivers would perform quite well on that CPU. Later Nvidia cards need newer drivers which expect more modern CPUs. Agree with this, you need more beans in the CPU dept. for new cards (assuming it's not running at 550MHz) Fastest W98 PCI card is a FX5700 PCI …
