183 IS 3500 level 😀 This card IS a V3 3500. 166 is 3000 and 143 is 2000.

I know the clocks. Just not read carefully the previous post 😜 I pretty much don't like OEM cards at all. 😵
Was there any Voodoo3 with 5ns ram? All 5 of mine had 5.5 or 6ns, even the 2000.

I think Dodge Garage mentions that there were some cards released with 5ns RAM. The point to remember, though, is that the core and memory clocks are locked on these cards so just because one side can take a speed bump doesn't necessarily mean the other side will.

Argh, I wasn't planning on buying a V3, but you're making me want one 🙁 Where are you finding those?

This seller has a ton of them..

Got this for my Slot A machine without ISA:

Was advertised as "PCI sound card" on ebay 😁

I do have a stack of Creative and M-Audio PCI sound cards, but I'm a Yamaha fanboy and this has the advantage of being period-correct. No idea if the mainboard will be able to support it in DOS, though, but the machine's mainly for 98SE so, not a concern.

I have a Yamaha XG soundcard, or had one, in one of my older systems at home. Pretty decent little cards in 98SE, never used it with DOS though.

My first pci card had a Yamaha XG744 sounchip,i remember the card having much quieter output,then the previous isa soundcard with opti chipset,also remeber that sensaura splash screen and sound,saddly back then not many games had support for sensaura positional sound,system shock 2 was 1 of them.

Two pieces of good news, one expected, and one bad one about my Toshiba Satellite 200CDT:

Good:
Hard drive controller is good, and it has no issue reading 6GB drives
RAM module is 32MB, not 16MB

Expected:
Dead RTC battery

Bad:
Either I'm missing a piece of the caddy, or it doesn't have the same screwhole locations as most IDE laptop drives. Fortunately, for temporary purposes, the HDD is right below the battery, and as such, is not going to move around too much.

EDIT: eBay possibly to the rescue, found a slightly different caddy with the right screwholes, but still looks like it should fit. I hope it does!

I surplus'd and trashed a Toshiba Satellite at work yesterday! In really good shape, real shame to do it. 😀

Now tie them both to a steel pipe and do some lifting 🤣

Seriously good specs on that - did they ever make 16:9 or 16:10 CRTs in the Trinitron monitor line?

Yup, it's the Sony FW900, max resolution 2304x1440, widescreen 24" of course!

If you find one on ebay, DON'T buy it or the shipping costs will bite you. It weighs 42KG!

That's a pretty nice monitor as well! I'd imagine those go for a small fortune when they crop up anyway, even without the shipping costs factored in.

got a Matrox Mystique 220 for an upcoming build Im planning involving a PII 233mhz hopefully.

I've have same card in 2001.Radeon 64DDR VIVO, cost me about 150$. But card is great. Modern drivers detect it as Radeon 7100, if I'm remember correct.

Radeon 7200, I think, as it's a 64MB card. 7100s were 32MB only, and came out in 2001.
