Almost finished building a 486SX PC, and am curious about what is the newest game it can run. My guess is DOOM '93 or DOOM II: Hell on Earth, judging by the fact it's a 486SX + AcuMOS AVGA1 (budget card from early '92). Anyone have any ideas?

RCR requires a decent FPU (no SX) and more of a late DX4 so that's a no-go.
