Finally put together a system for late dos, glide and early direct x gaming, as well as a heap of word processing.
I have had Turrican 2 (386 era) and Heretic 2 demo working, so I hope to be able to play a wide cross section of games. Bit of Quake (2?), late 90's rpg's (diablo 2 maybe).
Asus P3b-f - Intel BX, 2 x isa, 5 x pci, AGP, jumperless bios
Intel P3 500mhz
Matrox G450 32mb pci - dual vga and dvi outputs
pair 12mb Righteous Orchid 3D2 voodoo2's sli'd
Roland SCC-1 general midi isa
Soundblaster AWE64 gold isa (for older DOS games that don't like EMS)
Creative 4810 pci
Viewsonic VP191b 19" lcd, 8ms, dual vga + dvi inputs, 1280 x 1024
Viewsonic 17" CRT trinitron screen for low res DOS games
Contemplating the following upgrades:
Intel P3 933mhz
Audigy platinum instead of the vibra 4810
Voodoo3 3500 instead of the voodoo2's
The voodoo2's are hogging 2 pci slots, and I want to add a NIC and SCSI raid controller. I will only be playing later glide/miniGL games, but I am concerned over compatibility
