The Athlon seems superfluous since you already have a faster Pentium 3 system.

The Pentium MMX can be slowed down to 486 and 386 speeds with ease, so I wouldn't replace it with either of those.

I have a few systems that I rarely use.

Retro rigs so far:

1) P 233 MMX
2) K6-III - 400
3) K7 classic - 700
4) P-III 1 ghz

Maybe a new Slot 1? Would fill the gap. IDK

I could remove the P233 and slide in a 486 instead?

As for gaming the PIII is more than enough to have me covered.

Thanks for any answer.

Since you rarely use the current systems, maybe it's a sign there's no need for another box?

Blasphemy!

I know, I know! 😁
Just thinking it doesn't make sense to build and put something together unless there's a need for it.

In fact it's remove/add/transform. Your opinion to understand what I want 😀
And yes, total blasphemy.

I had more but dismantled, no sense having slot and socket Piii.
Athlon XP and a 939, AM2. No point in a FM1/2. I have 775 for that.
I found a K6-2 in a case I thought empty, one more to dismantle.
All the cases are in storage now except this one.

I took all down to those 4 in post 1, but I'm trying to get, as a retro guy and a collector, the most with my feet on the ground.
My space is limited, otherwise I'd have just left all as it was.

Well, it's hard to make room. And it no, it doesn't spark joy 🤣

The k6 might be a good option to use for a LAN system in the future to play games with the p1. Kinda like having the p3 and Athlon classic, fun having a pair of almost similar gen systems to run a couple local games with someone.

One can never have enough Slot 1 systems.

I would sell everything and keep just PIII as it can cover all those rigs when FSB is set to 66Mhz or L1 cache is disabled. If I had free space and time I would build a late 486 rig (5x86 133Mhz).

You don't love me, do you?

mATX + turbo XT 😀
https://monotech.fwscart.com/NuXT_v20_MicroAT … 4_19777986.aspx
NuXT - MicroATX Turbo XT Motherboard - 9.55MHz, UMBs, XT-CF, SVGA, HD Floppy, Serial

It costs too much for my tastes but has its place in my to-get list 😀
I had no idea it existed. Very nice and clean.

Problem solved, a friend got rid of a G4 350 mhz.
Gonna put all the unused parts in my storage room.
