So as the title states I have an AWE64 Gold in a static bag not being utilized and I'd like to put it in something. The "slowest" PCs I have are both 233 MHz socket 7 systems, one is a AMD K6 and the other is a Pentium MMX. I also have several super 7 systems with a mix of K6-2/3, a slot 1 Pentium II and an unbuilt slot 1 Pentium III. I have newer PCs as well but obviously no ISA slots.
Is an AWE64 optimal in a DOS only system? Maybe a Windows 95/DOS system? I have enough PCs that I can afford to be very specific about what's best for this sound card, which is what I want to do. I never had one of these back in the day because my first computer was in 1997 and the first sound card I bought myself was the original Live!
I also have a Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 and a Diamond Monster Voodoo 1, both also not being used, so maybe that's a good combination for a DOS system?
