I had today a big laugh! I was on my work (driving a truck). And i just loaded a pallet in a industrial area. They I saw a man with trolley full of scrap metal walking down the road. He passed my truck and I saw a computer. He looked like a junk or homeless man. I was thinking that should be 1998/1999 (case cdrom atx layout) maybe an pentium2 or something. And I saw a video sound and nic. So I asked can I buy the system. He said ok for 2 euro but I don't know if it still works. So I paid him the money and put it in my truck 😁 A few hunderd meters away there was a scrapmetal yard in the street 😀

I open't it later and saw a pentium2 350mhz and 64mb of ram!

I cleaned it and I booted it up. And everything works!

interesting choice, i just picked up the Tombraider pack on steam the other week and it include the originals. I'm sure you get plenty of FPS with those SLI VooDoo cards?

Wow 🤣

Great video and I really like the music and time-laps! I'm getting a new case for my Time-Machine (because it has one! more 3.5" bay) and might do a similar video to yours showing the complete build...

Update!

The Inside is painted now! The outside will get another color (2colors)

Nice job.

Are you trying to go for a Retro Geek Pr0n photography award with these? 😁

Get it filled up with the boards with a pittoresque background and it might just make my wallpaper 😉.

Update Finally did the window mod. It is the biggest windows which fit in this sidepanel. I used some heavy equipment for the job 😀

I also found a 486 motherboard with some nice specs. So I tried it out! Watch the video if it still works 😀
