HI, my name is Alex and it's my first post here (but I've been reading the forums for quite some time. Recently I got my first retro rig, and I'm really happy with it. Here's the specs:
Pentium 200 MMX
49MB RAM
SL-586V ART CONTROL mobo
Trident 3D Imàge 9750 (withAV and Svideo)
Creative Sound Blaster CT2980
USB x2 PCI card
8GB Quantum Fireball HDD
LG 52x CD Drive
2x 3.5 floppy
Got it for a fair/cheap price assembled and running Windows98. I had a Samsung SyncMaster 794v and overall I'm really satisfied with my acquisition. Also I have more 64MB EDO ram, PC Chips M530 mobo and a S3 Trio 64v2arriving soon.
Only one thing is missing from my dream retro machine, which is a OPL Sound card. I have a few option atm and I would like to hear some opinions about. Here my options:
Yamaha A151-A00 YMF-719-S
Yamaha LSI Audio Wave YMF718-S
Yamaha ATC-6631 YMF719E-S (sold as is, but with a really good price)
Sound Blaster 16 CT2230
Those are my options atm here in my country (unfortunately here in Brazil thing aren't as easy as in other places), and I really can't decide which one I'll bring home to listen some nice FM music.
Thanks in advance. Also here's some pictures of my rig
