Been using my socket 8 rig for quite some time lately since it packs alot of power for it's age to run quite heavy windows games and DOS games...and it's nice to know you use hardware that cost a fortune back in the day, hehe
I decided a while back that I want a dual socket 8 motherboard so I can also run Win2000 or NT4 to have some more juice by taking advantage of two cpu's.
I just aquired this mobo:
It's an MSI MS6107, has support for CPU speeds up to 233mhz...and the nice thing is that it's brand new...new old stock 😀
I have already bought two 1mb L2 cache Pentium pro's that will go in it which will be overclocked to 233mhz with better cooling.
Ram will be maxed to 768 meg's (EDO RAM), and I will use UW SCSI for the storage devices.
Haven't decided yet if I should use dual Voodoo 2's or a Voodoo 3000.
Will dual boot between Win98SE and Win2000 or NT4
