Some dirty pics for you ;) Yeah... Think I spot a K7S41 underneath those "Cakes". You could probably recap, and use it for testing stuff. Yes, it's a ASRock K7S41GX. That one seems to work just fine so it goes in the storage :). The S478 is an ASRock P4i65G . I was wrong on the caps and they don't …

I got two PC's for a couple of euro's. Beige cases, so I got them of course. They came from a smoker who never vacuumed I guess, because they were nasty! They were retrofitted, the mainboards+CPU+mem were new-ish (P4 S478 and an Athlon 2400+. I stripped and cleaned the parts. The S478 board had two …

Beautiful! I hope the battery can be …

... So I, uhhhh, "liberated" this from the local recycling center today! In fact, there were three AT systems in reach, but I couldn't grab more than one, sadly. No regrets though! Saw the Pentium Inside sticker, and was expecting another Socket 7 system, though the lack of a sound card was odd. …

It is a nice little chip. I have the regulair non+ edition, and it is working great. As far as I understand all the benchmarks and stuff, the + just produces less heat and are better at overclocking.

Hmm actually, I Googled it (should have done that before buying) and it's not an AWE32 but a Sound Blaster 32. Ah well...
