Dammit, Artex. Where do you keep finding this stuff? That Gainberry Maximizer is good stuff.

eBay for all of this stuff... The Gainbery chip was also an eBay listing from a VOGONS member (whom I might add did NOT advertise it on the board).

Finally complete, the graphics card I had back in the day (Took me some time to find this!)
There is a story!
Some company listed a boxed TNT2 Ultra, what you see above however didn't show the graphics card, just the box. I bought it now for £10. It came, box in not bad condition, all of the CDs, games and manual... but no Graphics Card. The seller refunded me and told me to keep the box.
Since then I've been on the lookout for the card. One finally popped up just down the road from me (Less than 10 miles) I went to pick it up today, gave £5 😀

Gotta love the Y2K logo at the bottom right 🤣
Pretty neat on having all the CDs and whatnot - is the card itself a Creative by any chance? (I think I can vaguely make out a CT... on it but I'm not certain)
So funny - I had a helluva time trying to find mine too. Now I'm after the boxed non-Gamer edition!

Yes, it a CT6810. There is not a great deal on the net about it. I'll have a go at benching it shortly.

This is the 386 system I got as part of the lot I just purchased...It has a 386DX20 cpu and it came with a sb pro 2.0 and a creative labs sb scsi connector board as well. I really like the case but I wish it had an lcd readout...I only have a couple old at cases with the lcd for turbo and one of them is in bad shape...oh well...at least it has a turbo button. I might post a separate topic for this system once I upgrade and clean it up.
Damn, I'm jealous. That computer looks really REALLY cool.
Check me out at Transcendental Airwaves on Youtube! Fast-food sucks!

Sorry, try what?

Looks good! What is that area of empty space on the top left? Looks like it would be the spot for the Mhz read-out.

Yes it looks like a perfect spot for an lcd mhz readout but unfortunately it's just an empty space.
I was thinking of modding it to accommodate one but it would be too much work I think...it's good enough to just have the turbo LED I guess. ...I do like the case though so I may end up doing a mod...but it will have to wait as I have a huge list of things I'd like to do before I do something like that.

I just picked up a very similar AT case and found the same.. 🙁 I'll take a picture tonight and upload it here. Getting tougher to find these AT cases in general, but even tougher to find them with these LCD displays.

That would be great...always love to see pics of other AT cases like this.

Insane yes.. though they are out there, for just $0.96 cents more ($5.95)... I picked up this boxed ISA 2MB STB Nitro 64: -
