Best win98 unofficially compatible cards are GeForce 7xxx series, so 2005-2006 is your limit. But you can do dual setup with PCI-E and use GeForce PCX 5950 or Quadro FX 1300 for win98 games.

it was the slowest of them all It is slow, but probably still faster in clock-for-clock comparison with real 486 class CPU. Most likely due to wider FSB and bigger cash though. details on target software? Usual suspects - Wing commander, Might&Magic III, Alone in the Dark.

RivaTuner for example.

And with PCI/AGP card? Using ISA card to slowdown system is interesting, but not so much practical.

Anyone had an experience? Considering its overall poor performance, I wonder if it's possible to use C6 as scalable 486 class CPU (clocks, caches disabled), but in more comfortable Socket 7 form.

GeForce 256 - ok. AWE32 could be better on local markets.

AMD / ATI continue to support their cards from a decade ago Radeon 2900XT/3870 - completely dropped support in 2013, in fact around 2011-2012. GeForce 8800GTX - completely dropped support only in 2016. Radeon 5870/6970 - completely dropped support in 2015. GeForce GTX 480/580 - added DX12 support …

So it does support Barton.

If you have the earlier p2 cpu with 66mhz fsb like a 333mhz 333mhz is Deshutes core only, which is multiplier locked. Last Pentium II with unlocked multiplier was clocked at 300mhz.

Might as well develop dream 440BX board. We should not forget that we are a very tiny niche market. And 486 are not really that practical to use, even when compared to AT Socket 7 boards.
Re: Slot 1/Voodoo 3 machine

Voodoo 3 can't go beyond 133mhz FSB on 440BX motherboard and GeForce 2 usually can handle 150mhz with sideband adressing disabled.

What is a good Socket A board with ISA that will run Athlon XP CPUs Chaintech 7AJA2/100. Thoroughbred-B support, usually comes with C-Media 8738 chipset (SB compatible). Not 100% sure, but I think Barton is supported too.

if there is any demand. There is little to no demand for such thing, because nobody cares. Which is quite ironic, when compared to something like OPL3 quality arguing.

UT2003/2004 need vertex shader support for proper rendering of all effects. Emulation of vertex shaders in Catalyst drivers is worse, if I remember correct.

I think that this graphics card are one of the last sold for AGP bus. That's Galaxy retail card and you can use it on motherboards with AGP 3.3v. Probably rarest AGP after Gainward 7800GS+ and the most rarest with 3.3v compatability.

Asus A7N8X Deluxe This motherboard don't have separate 12v rail for CPU. I don't think it's really stable even on 2600mhz. But that's pretty much all you can achieve even with water cooling. Everything beyond that most likely will require temperatures below zero.
