Liqmat, are you giving away them all at once? I'm interested in: Windows 95 Companion with USB Support sealed with reg key Delta Force Land Warrior EA Sports Nascar 2000 Test Drive 5 Although I'll take the rest as well if no one wants them. Media mail is fine. It's all yours. PM me an address. …

Never heard of IDE SSD. I found the Intel X25-E hard drive, and I find they are pretty cheap refurbished. Seems like a decent hard drive. Hi, don't worry you haven't. They aren't very common. Mainly intended for industrial or embedded use. For example, there's the Transcend TS32GPSD330 . But I've …

A missing pin can be soldered back usually, but most people don't bother to or have no skills to. I have intercepted a box of Tualatin-S CPUs once upon a time which was heading to a scrap refinery. Most CPUs missed a pin or two and those were important ones. Had to spend some time fixing.

Such an old thread. If anyone happens to stumble over such a Vectra mobo, it doesn't work without a VRM. It's needed to convert 5V to 3.5V and lower for Vcc and Vdd. Although it could run with a few jumpers instead of a VRM if the PSU had a P10 aux connector with +3.3V like HP did. That's not the …

PS. Am I missing something, or my board is missing one capacitor? Take a look on my photo above and: https://www.shuttle.eu/_archive/older/de/687v.htm (above CPU) Could it be the reason? Sigh, your board has issues with many more than one capacitor in fact. I see at least 5 of them bulged. Must …

I'd say an AMD 5x86-X5-133ADZ is the most affordable high performance 486 solution. You can glue a heat spreader to it and run without active cooling even with some overclocking like 4x40MHz or 3x50MHz.

I have removed the heat spreader on my Opteron 185 and have a few questions. 1) Has anyone performed a delidding and left the heat spreader off, thereby placing the heatsink/fan in direct contact with the surface below? What was the outcome? Wouldn't this be better for cooling, that is, to remove …

Once you install Linux, you don't care what M$ supports and what not. A dual core Opty with 8Gb of RAM can handle all common everyday tasks. Can it use the graphics card to accelerate videos in a web browser? I am tempted to switch, though I have been tempted for decades. I think Linux supports it …

Thanks for the information. The GT 1030 has no XP drivers, right? So I couldn't buy it now, use it with XP for another year, then upgrade to some other Windows OS? I'd have to be fully committed to ditching XP, and I'm just not there yet. From your response, it sounds like the industry is migrating …

FX-60 and unlocked multiplier isn't that easy :) CPU multiplier is used to clock memory as well. So, an even multi will clock memory lower than odd multiplier (integer only memory frequency dividers). Things get even more complicated with half multipliers :D Nop, what's used to clock memory (and …

I have an Opteron 180 running at 3.0GHz almost at the default voltage. The mainboard is an Abit AT8-32X with 8Gb DDR PC3200R, that's ECC registered. The board has had a fair share of MOSFET/capacitor mods, but they are irrelevant to the CPU temperature. The cooler is a Zalman CNPS7500-Cu. No heat …

That's the later revision, D and E should be able to only cache up to 128mb. The G revision should do 512mb. I wonder if it works with k6-2+ and k6-3+ mobiles. It should work but can you test this? That's correct, rev. G has almost all bugs fixed. There should be no tag SRAM chip installed on such …

3Dfx had quality and volume related issues with their Mexican plant at Juarez after the STB purchase in 1998, so they outsourced some production to China. These cards are just as good as Mexican. At the very least, their GPU heat spreaders were glued better on average than on those Mexican cards.
