It all started after I plugged out my Geforce 420p TI in order to check a S3 PCI vga card in my retro P3 machine. The CF card which is the hard drive was plugged out when I did the test. When I insert the AGP G4 4200 again, Windows 98 loader stuck. I could enter safe mode, removed the Nvidia driver, …

Hi I currently run a 733mhz pentium 3 on Intel i820 motherboard. Would I notice any big differences by upgrading the 733mhz to 1.0ghz Coppermine? I see these cheap on ebay. Would a Tualatin 1.0ghz is better than Coppermine? and does my motherboard supports it?

I'm assuming you don't want to replace your case (to one with a dedicated exhaust fan near the CPU), and you don't want to replace your motherboard (to an actual Socket 370 mobo). In this case, generally the best setup is for the front case fan to be an intake, and for the Power Supply to pull hot …

Repo Man11 wrote on 2022-06-05, 06:59: That front fan appears to be oriented so that it is an exhaust fan rather than an intake one - you generally want the front fan blowing in, and any rear fans you have to be blowing out. It is blowing in but not that much, I guess after all these years.

Ok I see now that the PSU has this fan that drops air to the slot: Is this a special design?

No crashes yet. All original hardware from 99. I don't think it's a branded fan.

I have just found out that I have a Socket 370 733MHZ CPU in a Slot 1 adapter. Does that perform originally like slot 1? I remember having these adapters on celerons. Does that matter if I find an original slot 1 733mhz and not 370?
