This is my first retropc build,i opted for the super socket 7 platform for 2 reasons:
-i needed a motherboard that supports an Amd K5-100Mhz processor,left over from my first pc.
-nostalgia,back in 98-99 i wanted a pc with a k6-2 proc and a 3D videocard,since my k5 was obsolete,but never got 1.
I use it for windows games from the 96-99 period.
Mainboard is a Jetway-model 542C with the Ali Aladdin 5 chipset,using a patched bios from http://web.inter.nl.net/hcc/J.Steunebrink/k6plus.htm
to enable write allocation on the processor
Proc:Amd k6-2+ at 533 mhz,overclocked to 550mhz and 256mb sdram pc100
Videocard:3dfx Voodoo 3 2000,overclocked at 166 mhz,with the cooler from my old K5 mounted.
Soundcard:Creative Soundblaster Awe64-value model
Inside of the pc.with everything mounted
