Re: My K6-III+ Socket 7 project

Posted on 2021-07-31, 03:12

Nice build! I recently built something similar albiet with a crappy PC Chips M571 board, but also a K6-3+ @6x83=500mhz and a PCI Voodoo 3. I had a heck of time getting mine stable but mainly due to my board not really allowing for low enough voltage for the chip, and weirdness with IDE controllers …

Yeah, my Voodoo3 seemed to get really hot, but this Noctua NF-A9x14 slim case fan I have zip-tied to it is working well so far . I'll probably also add a 120mm Noctua fan on the side of the case to suck air from outside the case, but the current solution is working great so far. Temps are low even …

Nice work! You got yourself an extremely versatile and capable machine. The fact that your 430TX board is stable at 83 MHz is a bit surprising though. I figured K6-3+ CPUs would use a 66 MHz FSB and a higher multiplier under those circumstances. But maybe Asus boards were just that good back in the …

I find it's a lot easier to leave the cards as they are and just add good case cooling. This was pretty easy... I already had the fan and this took less than 5 minutes and lowered temps much further than any of my indirect case fans. Couldn't you risk this "lifting off" the heatsink, when it gets …

I ended up making a separate post dedicated to this build: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=87622 The Socket 7 machine is coming together ... For video, I ended up using my PCI Voodoo3 3000 for the sake of simplicity. For audio, I picked up an Orpheus w/ PCMIDI. I also switched gears and …

Re: Windows 98 Color Calibration

AFAIK, you would need a LUT (look-up table) loader that works in Windows 98 . An old Windows 9x compatible version of Adobe Gamma (which was bundled with Photoshop) might do the trick . Would that work for games too? I imagine that it would . I have never tried it . Adobe Gamma did a great job with …

I have a few different computers hooked up to my CRT Monitor and would like to profile all of them. Is there any color calibration software for Windows 98? Is it possible to generate an ICCv2 profile as an ICM file in Windows 10 and then load it on Windows 98? I tried this, but am not seeing the …

Windows 98 Volume Levels

Posted on 2021-06-30, 01:27

I have a Yamaha YMF724F, Aureal 8830, and Audigy 2 ZS daisy-chained on my Windows 98 computer, but am struggling with volume levels. The cards are all daisy-chained YMF724 Out > 8830 In > 8830 Out > Audigy In > Audigy Out > Speakers. I also have the internal S/PDIF connection from my DVD drive going …

yep thas is one full case! Will be interesting to see how you find 9x gaming on this vs the MMX once it's up and running. Do make sure you turn on anti aliasing, and all the other options in the graphics card drivers, it's one of the big benefits of going with this overkill hardware It was easy to …
