I want to build a Windows 98 box to run some late 90's 3D games (Need For Speed, Quake II, etc..), but I can't decide what configuration to go with. I was thinking of the following choices:
Motherboards:
- Albatron KM400A (VIA KM400)
- QDI Kinetiz 7T/ Soltek SL-75KAV (VIA Apollo 133A)
- Asus P4S800-MX (SiS 661FX)
- Asus P2B-S rev 1.03 (440BX) [I have some coppermine CPUs, but only a "dumb" slotket adapter]
- AGP-ALI (Ali M1542) +any K6 II
Video cards:
- GF 2 PRO
- GF FX 5200
- GF MX440
- GF 6600 GT (a bit overkill tbh)
- Radeon 9000
- Radeon X1300
- S3 Savage 4 Pro
The motherboards can be complemented by any CPU (low end to high end) and any IDE hard drive.
The idea is to avoid any strange issues caused by poor drivers.
What combination should I go with ? (if something isn't on the list you can still suggest it, I may have it and forgot to include it)
