Also... In 486 chart , the comment about the system, the video card data is missing - it shows DOOM FPS instead. Fixed! Thank you for spotting this :) PS: Just saw that you used a FX-5200. That card is, for whatever reason, a little bit slower than a TNT2 or MX440. Still plenty of grunt though and, …

Hmmm I'm sure the PCI NIC I used does 10/100 and the speeds I got were quite low.

And so what? You say you aren't doing it for the money, but then please own it. I must say this "I don't do it for the money" on one hand and then complaining about loss of revenue on the other hand is something that rubs me the wrong way. Now I might be the odd man out here, but for me, as soon as …

I have never run a PCI card on any of my SS7 boards. Why would you? A proper database would be nice Keropi, but Google docs doesn't have one and it also requires a lot more preparation because you would have to enter all possible choices for users to select in order to have a proper database with …

Well YT is what people will watch, so to me that is what matters most :happy: You can download the videos from your own channel, I believe the format of those files is it.

I also find FPU a bit of a gimmick on a 386. As if you are going to benchmark / play with / use AutoCAD :dead: A 386DX-40 board with crystal oscillator is very flexible as you can run it at 33 and 25 MHz. Some boards have the AMD CPU SMD soldered. Some come with a socket. There are also hybrid …

Nice 😀 You can also just configure DHCP for a static IP address. But the IP is displayed on the screen anyway, so it's not a bid deal 😀
