Nice job on the XT. Is that a NIC with that RJ-something port and LED's on the bracket?

Today, I decided to re-install my Canopus Pure3D-II and Pure3D-II LX SLI pair in my P2-450 computer... pretty much because I've forgotten how nice Unreal was at the time (1998) at 1024x768 with V2-SLI.

Well... Looking at that, I think it did unfortunately.

I hope that hasn't knackered it, I miss my Amiga 500 🙁

I'm trying to choose good memory for i430TX, it supports 66Mhz FSB, I don't have manual actually.
Q: If this is max 66Mhz FSB mobo then max supported RAM will be PC66 or could be PC100 as max?

I like drivers for your Canopus gear, best drivers I've meet for V2. Wish to play UNREAL with Sound Blaster Live! and 5.1 speakers

You can use up to PC133 if you want. The thing is you'll probably want double-sided RAM, and avoid high capacity sticks.

Aim is to put 64MB. Plan is to put 2x32mb or 2x16mb+1x32Mb. Actually I know I can use PC133 and this will work as max motherboard can support. But not sure what is maximum for FSB66 Shuttle Hot 569 rev.2.1 is is PC66 or PC100? Not sure, any one know?

AFAIK the i430TX runs the memory at the same clock as the FSB. So if it is FSB66, the maximum (officially) should be PC66. Of course, if you plan on overclocking the FSB, then you're better off with PC100+ sticks, as they still are below specs at 70-75MHz.

Motherboard has great overclocking features so I think I will go with PC133 for further needs I think. SDRAMs are cheap so doesn't metter if I will buy some PC66 or PC133. I'll do some memory testing soon 😀

Not much retro but sure about retro. Today i finally finished remake of mine pages. New sorting, much more informations, better search, integrated videos and 756 graphics cards and chipsets. Took me almost year to do it. I have a feeling of many new cards coming to site soon (cause i stopped adding new ones). As always visit http://vgamuseum.info
