I'am building a Retro 3dfx gaming machine era 1999/2000. The parts i choose will be the ultimate gaming machine which i couldn't afford back in these days. So everything is going to be top of the line 😁
So first my introduction video of the project where i show the hardware. And give more details over my system back in those days in the description.

Testbuild! It's much safer to test the hardware in a case then on my desk. For so far the setup is stable and with windows 2000 no errors.
But the build isn't cool without a great case! So my choice is the Aopen HQ45!! The most known ugly case ever! No cooling option allmost no hd bays.
Lets mod it!!
It will be a total rebuild 😁
I made this new HD rack. Its looks awesome and fill up the space in the front. There will be a big sidewindows to show all the epic expension cards
Custom front made of a top cover of a chieftec tower
Another youtube video where i show the start of the casemod! 😀
