I'd like to know what men here think about most _powerfull_ PC having exellent compatibility with DOS & Win98SE games (games supporting WinXP are outside of our situation)?
For sure, such PC must to have ISA slots (at least one) for sound card (AWE64 Gold is the best for this). So Pentium 3 is the most powerfull CPU for such computer, because P4 MBs had no ISA. The most fast of P3 CPU's were Pentium 3 Tualatin 1.33 GHz, and among motherboards for Tualatin only those with VIA chipset (694T, for example) had ISA slot. Such boards supported HDD up to 120 Gb (more big HDD they saw as 120 Gb one).
The most interesting situation is with video card. Some men said that best compatibility with DOS+Win98 games have cards not newer than Geforce3, other that the limit is Geforce FX 5xxx. Maybe someone here have experience in this theme, or theoretical thoughts about this. And what about compatibility of Voodoo5 with all Win98 games?
