Nice lineup. Wouldn't that Raptor be 74GB though? I have one as boot drive in my linux file server.

I've got a 6800GS AGP that would fit well in your Win2k. Not for sale though. 😀

K. Like this one?

My 74GB is 2nd gen, pictured at the top of this Wikipedia pg:

Also have a 500GB in my main PC (the WD5000HHTZ). I still remember buying it for $79 new at Newegg during a Black Friday sale a few years ago. Could not believe it was half price. Easily the best Black Friday deal I ever got. 😀

This weekend I may convert my XP 64bit box into a Vista 64 retro box, because on friday support ends and it offically becomes retro 🤣

So next month my plans are

Geforce FX 5600 or FX 5700 to replace the failed Ti, and a Geforce 6600GT AGP or 9800 Pro for the P4 2k build

So to replace my broken Ti 4200 I found a working FX 5200 128mb, what do ya think, is it better than the MX420 im currently using?
