I had debate with some peoples in facebook group, and even in my association with Amiga Fan telling that putting an SB16 or GUS in an XT is not normal. Amiga people are weird anyway..

There is no BIOS String, it only shows BIOS Version. Filename bios_string.jpg File size 109.38 KiB Views 103 views The Version Number is all you get on Memory Test Screen. I put Audigy 2 ZS inside, but it seems the Card is slowing down. Does it so much processing on Host CPU ?

Yeah i tried 3dmark 2000 only scored a mere 900 points. The TNT1 Chip really struggles here. Did you run UT in OpenGL Mode or in DirectX ?

if a shop needs to bring up such reviews on their main page it clearly must suck somehow. Also the reviews did not change in years.. Its not very uncommon that a taxi driver is not a electronic professional.

🤣 electromyne is not even a technican, its just a guy with a lot of scrap.. Just look at the reviews on their site. 🤣. A Taxi Driver is telling us the PowerSupply he buyed is very high Quality. Can a Taxi Driver really tell the difference between 20$ ATX and a HQ one ?

Your motherboard was manufactured by Gigabyte. Your particular model is a very early Local Bus (not VESA Local Bus) motherboard. CPU support is limited to 5V pre-DX2 era 486 CPU's. However, you might be able to run a DX2-50 & DX2-66 on that motherboard by using the same jumper settings as with a DX …

How do you cool your PCX1 Cards ? mine is getting temperatures where you almost burn your fingers.. i think i would go add a Heatsink on it. But how to attach one without loosing the prints on the chip ? Maybe make some Sort of Clamp ? Implent PCX2 in FPGA and make new PCI Card 😉

Hm guess when i read XP Build i usually expect a Pentium 4/Athlon 64/maybe a early Dual Core. I would not consider this even a Retro Build. Its still so modern it could run everything except few games 😁
