This computer is a reimagining of my third computer that I built during the mid 90's which was an upgrade from the 486DX2 80 that I had before it. It was the first computer that I built by myself and paid of all the parts. This computer is what I would have done if I had the money to do it. The computer I built back then was a Pentium Pro 166 with a cheap Acer motherboard, 32 mb of ram, 10g hard drive, 256k Trident video card, and SoundBlaster AWE32. Then Later upgraded to a Creative Labs PCI TNT, and SoundBlaster Live Value and 64 mb of ram.
I've wanted a Diamond Edge since see it in a Next Generation Mag. Ad and would have been my top chose for this build even though it not that great of a card. The Saturn controller ports were a big selling point to me. The OverDrive and the Voodoo would be more of a later upgrade that I would have been done to the system after those items came out. The CD drive, hard drive, zip drive, case are just items I had lying around and would most likely be different if I built this system in the mid 90's.
