Built a new retro PC, this time around with an Asus TX97-E,
I've been hearing over at Retro Web that that the board has insufficient power delivery leading to unstable or unsafe operation..
is that something to consider?
I already recapped the board, there are only 8 caps in total.

I'm using the following configuration for the system:

- Pentium 233 MMX
- 450W FSP Power supply
- S3 Virge DX
- 3DFX Voodoo 1 (might be swapping to a Voodoo 2 at some point)
- 3Com Etherlink PCI network card
- Creative Soundblaster AWE 64
- Teac CD 532E
- 40GB Seagate U series

Should I be fine with this configuration ?

Hi. I have the same motherboard tx97-e 1.11. At first I had a 200W AT power supply, sometimes the computer would not start, I changed it to ATX 300W and now everything is fine.

Sorry for my English
