I had some time off this week for the holiday. I decided to spend a little bit of time shuffling around configurations of my retro builds.
This machine was pieced together from cast offs from my old K6-III+ rig.
I gifted my other Cyrix MII build to a friend looking to get back into retro gaming, but I swapped out to the CPU for a 266GP 2.9v core version and clocked it to stock per his request.
I did a bit of overclocking on my machine however as it has a more modern core with 2.0v and is a decent overclocker.
I will post some benchmark numbers if anyone is interested.
Specs are as follows:
Tekram P5MVP -B4 (Patched BIOS)
Cyrix MII 266GP - 95x3.5- 333mhz @ 2.3volt (Detects as 6x86MXL 466GP)
128MB PC133 RAM (single stick, tightest timings in BIOS)
DELL OEM Geforce 2 GTS 32MB - Stock clocks, AGP 2x mode
40GB IDE conventional HDD
ESS 1868F ISA Sound Card
Windows 98SE - No patches
DX 8.1 (I meant to install 7.0, guess I didn't pay attention)
Please excuse the mess, I just threw it all together on a whim.
