I'm always pleased to see another Slot A build out in the wild! Although your back-up retro PC is more interesting than my primary retro PC :p

Rebadged IBM HDD?

Nice system, not every day that you see a slot A system.

Hitachi actually. But you're right, since IBM sold their HDD division to Hitachi.

ASUS GeForce 256 (AGP-V6600PRO/64M)
Creative Sound Blaster Live! (CT4830)
Creative Sound Blaster AWE32 (CT3900)

2X 256MB Kingston SDRAM (PC133)

I know its a bit cheeky, but would you mind posting a few pics of your graphics card ?
I have the exact same model, but its been recapped and has got a really bad and blurry picture.
I'm thinking the recap wasnt done correctly =/
Values and polarity of the caps would be awesome.
From what I can already see of your pics you have a few tantalums where I have regular aluminium electrolytic ones.
TY in advance !
