Howdy folks,
First time posting, long time reader. Such an awesome forum.
Anyhow, I found an old Dell Optiplex GX110 the other day, and man did they cut corners on this motherboard (see pics!).
From my research it appears to be running on the Intel i810 chipset. The funny thing is, it has NO expansion slots except for 1 ISA slot! Plugged into this ISA slot is a 5 Slot PCI adapter bridge (are these hard to find?). I'm assuming this would cause anything plugged into the PCI slots to run at ISA speeds, which is not ideal.
So my question is... is there any good reason to hold on to this board?? I can't think of ANY uses I might have for this thing.
I already own better boards, including the Intel 430FX Triton for really old school games, and 440BX for my 90's Goodness.
The CPU it came with is a Pentium 3 866mhz/133fsb Coppermine, this I will hold on to 😊
