And the Win98/3DM01 world record was born:

The attachment 69164.jpg is no longer available

I recently ran a 3dmark01 test on a z390+i3-9350KF+7900GTX and it scored 89,000 on Windows XP, but only 40,000 on Windows 98. I don't know why. I ran a 3dmark01 test on a z87+i3-4370+7900GTX+Win98 and it scored 62,000. Please help.

It is variable, very config-dependent. Also, the way Win98 is installed also matters a lot.
I have often written about the installation process in the Hungarian topic.
I will soon look at Win98 on an X299 config.

Could you please forward the link to me so I can learn how to install it? Thank you, and I look forward to your upcoming X299 world record.

They are in Hungarian, but Google Translate is already good enough.

ok, ok, thank you, I am in East Asia, I have been using translation tools to read technical documents for a long time

Later hardware for win98 has some quality of life improvements, like better heatsink retention, better coolers available, working USB 2.0, compatibility with SATA drives... Just to name a few.
