Hello everyone. I have never build a retro gaming pc before but I want to start with it in the next couple of month.
For my first build I want to recreate a rather potent vodoo 2 system to run most the famous games from 1997 to 1999. I am want to build a single vodoo 2 rig. Getting another one for Sli wouldn't be uncool matter but getting 2 vodoo with the current pricing of the 3dfx cards is out of the question at the moment.
As I have never done this before I do not know where to start.
Which configurations would you guysr recommend ?
Which cpu would you recommend for example? I have read that getting the right cpu is tricky because If you chose a too powerful one which is too modern could overwhelm the voodoo 2.
Which 2d card would you recommend that would the perfect partner for a vodoo 2?
Are all vodoo manufactures equal or are som more desirable than others?
is the 12 mb version a must or could I also hunt for a 8mb version?
I would be pleased hearing some opinons.
And sorry to bother you guys with my super noob questions.
