@Mau1wurf1977, That GeForce 460 is from Poland. It’s quite common card in my country – I have got 3 of those 😉

@Lukeno94, You were almost right. This white card is SiS Xabre 80 from Triplex 😀
you can see more info here: http://www.vgamuseum.info/index.php/component … 67-sis-xabre-80

@foey, I think I have got the card you mentioned:

@Callahan, nie chciałem utrudniać zadania 😜

All in all, I think that only 2 cards from the above are worth attention: I have never seen a PCI version of Chromatic Research Mpact 2 and that Xabre 80 seems very unusual.

Does that Compaq have a bigfoot drive? I sold a similar model last week. Nice little Pentium machines.

Based on the missing front panel, I would say that it used to have one, but that it died and was junked.

Really? Doesn't look like it would fit, I'd have thought that you'd need half an inch more space vertically to actually be able to get at the drive in that position. 😀

Never seen one on ebay before - an A-Trend Freeway FW-6400GX/150, with a link to m1919's thread.

edit: oops wrong thread >.< 😵

yhep, my model was a 120mhz Pentium but the case was exactly the same. I was suprised as well to see it down there. That and its been awhile since I've seen a bigfoot style drive. Though that motherboard is diffrent then the one that was in mine. Does that Mb have a COAst slot for l2 cache?

Kudos on the 88pro Artex, excellent choice!

Thanks!! Was waiting to find one in good condition for a rather decent price.. well, relatively decent price as compared to some I've seen that were in worse condition.

Artex - Nice boxed Creative Encore!

Heard the DXR cards reduce the image quality quite a lot when passed through to the graphics card.

VoodooMan! Thats the one, I remember those where I used to work. Built quite a few Customer Machines at the time with those. I can't remember, dp they feature the 64bit or 128bit memory interface?
