Hello to all,
My name is João, I'm from Portugal and some years ago, I mounted a retro computer using an epox ep-bx3 (440bx), with a Pentium 3 with 700mhz, a voodoo 3 3000 agp, 768mb pc100 ram and a sound blaster ct2290.
This computer works great with the late ms-dos games and the end of the millennium ones.
But since I also want be able to play some games that are a little more recent I decided to prepare another computer.
My idea is to start with my DFI Ca-61 (VIA Apollo pro 133 693a chipset) since I already have it lying around, install 1.5gb of pc133 ram (I don't know if my motherboard can accept this much ram), put a korean modded Pentium 3 1.4 GHz ( for Coppermine motherboards) and a ti4200 8x 128mb that I already have.
Do you think that this configuration will run good or I will suffer from compatibility problems or significant performance decreases due to the chipset/motherboard?
