Re: Pentium Overdrive competition - socket 3/4/5/7
Posted on 2020-03-29, 15:33
My guess is any upgrade that changes the base FSB the most will have the most impact on overall scores (assuming cache issues aren’t present) Numerically the overdrives that increase clock speed the most as a percentage will have the most affect on numerical calculations , though frames per second …
Re: Pentium MMX SL27S undervolting
Posted on 2020-03-28, 10:41
I'm wondering if anyone has done any undervolting and what are the experiences? I've tried with 166MMX and 233MMX and they both go down to 2.0V and run stable. The 166MMX even overclocks to 208MHz at that voltage. And this gets me guessing if this is normal or the jumpers on my QDI Explorer IV …
Re: ATi Mach8 Graphics Ultra ISA VGA card, quick test.

Would this card (in the original post) be a good choice for say a high end 386 (AMD DX-40 perhaps?), or an entry level 486 (say a DX-33) system? Pre "multimedia", and pre Doom era? Did anyone own this card back in the day? Generally speaking, was it considered a quality card? Thanks for any …

I never really did understand the point of the keyboard shaped monitor cables. I had a mono monitor attached via a round digital adapter to a 286, I can honestly say I’ve never seen a pc with that connector natively, it’s always through an adapter A good start http://www.muszeroldal.hu/assistance/ …

Re: How did people draw on their PCs in the 80s and the 90s?
Posted on 2020-03-25, 18:58
I used a lot of ascii graphics for banners and whatnot, don’t remember what software My folks had an Innovion PGS-III (CASI Futura 100) with a tablet and targa graphics/video toaster, could take photos, draw, overlay, etc on the spot and all in the late 80’s.

32pin Simms could be double sided 30 are always single You're wrong. This 512KB RAM is 30 (above) Just an FYI, poster above is speaking truth Also... Notice the # 32 printed right in the photo of the “30 pin” simm? In the day I remember companies advertising 30 pin and 32 pin Simms and both look …
Re: SVGA minimum RAM?
Posted on 2020-03-08, 20:13
I had a 256kb SVGA video card 800x600x16 was possible Also had a windows driver for 640x400x256 which I’m told is abit odd. Always wondered why more cards didn’t support that out of the box?

Nope And I would always choose the higher physical clock (and an IBM part if possible) then set bus and multiplier myself, back in the day I upgraded my 75x2.5 IBM MII’s motherboard to pc100 and ran it at 95x2 for years. That said... But some 6x86’s just completely are missing certain multipliers by …
