Earlier today I asked about what was the best motherboard from 1999. Or from the 90’s at all honestly. I was given some amazing suggestions but I had a few other questions.
Basically my goal is to build the best gaming computer from the 90s. Parts from 1990-1999 are eligible.
I currently have a GeForce 256 ddr model: CT6970
Pentium 3 SL3VM 733 MHz
Two quantum fireball CX 20.4 GB hard drives
One IBM DPTA-373420 34.2GB hard drive
A sound blaster live platinum
A 40x disc drive
A 5.25 floppy drive and two 3.5 floppy drives
I even have 6 Roland ma-12C’s if it’s possible to use them for a surround sound set up.
I don’t know what motherboard would be best but I was given a few to look into. I’m not sure if all these parts can be used together or not.
If anyone has any suggestions on parts to change or add please let me know. I am also looking for a good case from the 90s to put these parts in. And if you think you know which mother board would fit best with what I have or how to go about the surround sound (if possible with this Tec) please leave a suggestion.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and give advice! I’m new to all this but have enjoyed every step. 😀
