I cleaned and rebuild the system. I swapped out the PSU and installed a 40gb maxtor. The modem and cheap nic are gone and is replaced by a 3com 3c905b. The video card is for now a S3 savage4 to try it out.

Kewl beans!

Got any other pics of the case? It kinda looks like a Fujitsu-Siemens workstation case with the color of that front panel.

No the paint is original and very nice quality! 😀

I have good news someone donated retro hardware to awesomeretro to build more machines! So retro system3 is on his way. Almost similair to this one!

I found a new Asus p3b-f motherboard for my retro rig.because it is not 100% stable. I found this board on a local ebay. I paid 10 euro including 6.75 euro shipping 😁

Heh, nothing better than a retro rig in a retro aluminum case. 😁

🤣 😁
Sorry, not to belittle your collection but I just couldn't hold my laughter, apologies for that 😊

It's a nice little collection, but looking at my own 3dfx collection, I would call yours 'an assortment of Voodoo cards' 😉

Anyway, your system looks nice, hope you're having fun with it.

Are you just randomly buying Voodoo 2 cards or is there some theme to your collection?

You got a very nice collection! What I didn't see in your video if you have a running retro machine?

I have plans to do more Retro 3DFX builds to have multiplayer fun on events and festivals.

No, unfortunately I don't have a retro-rig set up at the time. Hopefully I'll be benchmarking old videocards by the end of the year and then I might enjoy some retro-gaming once in a while.

Nice. I'm still trying to get my hands on one of these old ATC cases 🤣.
