This is my current setup:
*Intel SE440BX2 motherboard
*850MHz slot-1 PIII (Coppermine)
*384MB PC100 RAM (3 x 128MB)
*64MB Voodoo 5 5500 AGP
*40GB IDE HDD
*Windows 98se
And this is what i'm going to max it out as:
*1.4GHz Tualatin Celeron via a Powerleap adapter
*768MB PC100 RAM (3 x 256MB)
*128MB Geforce 4 Ti4200
*60GB ATA133 or SATA HDD via a PCI IDE/SATA adapter (i think win98 had issues with drives over 63GB iirc?).
*A better PSU will probably be needed too!
... Will the above run Morrowind comfortably? And will i run into major issues with having more than 512MB RAM with windows 98se (with unofficial service pack installed)? I've heard that some people manage to run Windows 98se fine with more than 512MB RAM with no tweaking!
I just have this urge to completely max out my old PIII rig! Not sure i could use a better or more power hungry card than the Ti4200 with it's old 3.3v AGP 2x port though... I know the real world performance difference between AGP 2x/4x/8x is not a big deal anyway.
