Hey, Long time view first time poster love the retro hardware community on here!

I have finally got my grubby mits onto not 1 but 2 socket 4 motherboards and a lone p60 sx948. I found them for a "reasonable" price so had to have them. Both board have the intel LX chipset and 256kb L2 cache

The first board is a Intel batman motherboard they seem to be fairly common, some people report having issues with them but i personally haven't ran into any problems as yet, in saying that i haven't been using it long. High treason has one and you can see it in some of his videos on youtube. Shout out to High treason for the great videos

Second is a Dell board from a optiplex 560-L i believe which Im going to "downgrade" my optiplex xl575 with, As it uses the same chassis.

I have ran a series of benchmarks using Phils benchmark pack. Shout out to Phil for you great videos and the pack!
These boards both have no ability to tweek timings for anything relative to performance in the bios so settings are default

Configuration
-8mb FP ram for all tests except quake with had to be upgraded to 16mb to run
-ARK logic pci video card.
-The same cpu was used, and overclocked to 66mhz for that test
-540mb seagate hard drive
Also included is the dell integrated video card benchmarks using a cirrus logic gd5430 1mb which is atrocious considering ive got a gd5429 vlb card in a dx4-100 that manages to not hold the system back.
For a reference i have added a 486 dx4 results i had recorded board is a PCI ALi chipset using an Ali Mach64 2mb

See attached image for benchmarks

I am particularly fond of the Dell system, the ps2 mouse being convenient for playing warcraft 2 which the system runs surprisingly well under dos even with a sound card

Let me know what you think!
