Guys,
I purchased this computer on eBay Just for the case.
This is the Same PC case I had back in 1998.

I remember I had a
Intel bx440 motherboard
Intel Pentium-ll@400mhz CPU
3DFX Voodoo card
Sound blaster live
Ide hard drive 2gb.
4x ide CDROM drive
56kb dial up modem
100-base-T network card on 100mb/s cable modem internet
32mb ram
Windows 98

I want to try to recreate this gaming computer
But make it even better

I have a Asus CUSL2 motherboard
With a 1ghz Pentium-lll
That I want to put in the case
And a Sound Baster Audigy 2zs with live drive.
512mb of PC-133 RAM
120gb ide hard drive
CF card drive
52x CDROM drive
DVD drive
Fast network card on 5gb Fiber internet
Windows 98se with SP3 and updates.

In the Spirt of Halloween season.
Also I have all these parts laying around and nothing to
Do with them. I might as well build the gaming computer
I always wanted back in 1999

Very nice! I could have only dreamt of such a machine in 1998. I did buy a voodoo2 in early 1999 though the rest of my system was still powered by a lowly cyrix mII!

System 1: K6-3+ 600MHz! MS-5158 (430TX), Voodoo3, AWE64
System 2: Athlon XP-M 2800+ SL-75KAV (KT133A) FX5200
System 3: 775i65g (work in progress) FX5900XT
System 4: i7-2600k, P8P67-M, GTX 460

Yeah, I cleaned the computer and now I am testing it
To see what is wrong with it before I take it appart.

It has a
Intel Celeron @ 1.1ghz
128mb pc-133 ram
20gb ide hard drive
Onboard sound chip asmedia
And usual stuff

I put a pci voodoo card in it for now and it works.

I need to order some components before I begin the upgrade.
