It's been a bit of a hoarding spree for me lately... So far loving it 😀
First, a Chaintech 5RSA2 motherboard — microATX Super Socket 7 using Ali Aladdin V chipset with 2 ISA slots:
Thing is, I'd like to make a rig for LAN parties — something I could take with me on a taxi, along with a bag with an LCD monitor and keyboard, mice and wires. I'd want to mess around with a build using AMD K6-III+ and Voodoo Banshee or Voodoo 3. Might be too slow to comfortably play Quake 3 or UT99 at decent resolutions, but still fun.
Then, a couple of other Chaintech motherboards:
A 6BTM0 and 6BSA0. Both tested by the seller to be working and supporting Coppermine CPUs. I've already tested 6BTM0 with a SL5QW (a 11x100 Coppermine). I've updated the BIOS to some modded version meant to support Tualatins, so now the BIOS correctly shows the CPU as being a 1100 MHz.
The microATX version should at least be okay with a 10x100MHz and either a Voodoo 5 or a GeForce 3/4 with Voodoo SLI — definitely fast enough for any Win98-themed LANparty. Now I'll have to find a good case. I'm eyeing something like this:
Maybe someone has already done a "luggable" build like this? I'd be interested to see the cases others have chosen for this.
Next, a Gigabyte GA-7IXE4
I have no Socket A motherboards, and I figured two ISA slots would be a nice excuse to get one — that's kind of a rule that keeps me from spreading my hardware collection too wide 😀
Seems like this is AMD's answer to boards like Asus CUBX: older 100MHz chipset, ISA slots, DMA66. Red Hill Guide seems to love it, while some people at Vogons don't? I wonder what is the actual fastest CPU I could put in it, because Gigabyte seems to list some CPUs that were never made for 100MHz FSB (like AthlonXP 1500+).
A Diamond Monster Fusion (Voodoo Banshee)
Really love the way this card looks.
A Voodoo 3 3000
I only had PowerColor EvilKing 3 up until now, and this card was very cheap, so why not?
Elsa Gloria L/M
This a workstation class OpenGL card based on 3DLabs GLINT chipset. Dead, unfortunately. I'll try to get it to working some day.
Finally, some newly made stuff:
A Covox clone
A PS/2 adapter for ISA and a 28MB RAM upgrade for AWE64
