First you should identify the motherboard. Chances are good that it houses either a SiS5598 or SiS530 chipsetted motherboard (both non-AGP, the former being a 66MHz FSB (though it could also be set at 75MHz FSB) and the latter being a Super 7 board).
I remember having taken apart a couple similar systems and I threw away the cases as I found them to be ugly and unpractical...but I would definitely keep the boards 😀If you identify the board (or post a picture) I can help identify the board 😉
I'll be pulling the mobo out today and taking some pics.

It looks like a motherboard made by ASUS (it has that typical ASUS font), possibly it's an OEM motherboard if you can't find a manual on the ASUS website.
Luckily it looks like the jumpers are silkscreened on the pcb.
I'd say, keep it! I know I would 😀

Guys look between the upper PCI slot.. The name is already on the board.. How blind can you be?? Its indeed an ASUS font.. So look for ASUS SPAX..
I think this motherboard isnt a retail board, because i dont find it on the old site of asus.. With google it i found:
-ASUS SPAX Motherboard from HP Pavilion Socket 7 SDRAM
-HP Pavilion 6330
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-OEM-ASUS-SP … U-/251341213786
http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?board_id= … SLanguage=en-us
Try http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLangua … p=1&m=SP97&os=8 for the manual.

Drivers weren't a problem finding actually. I'm just not sure what to do with it.

Build a rig around it of course! 😁
The chipset supports linear burst, which is used by the Cyrix chips. That and so far I've read (by googling the chipset) this chipset can cache 128 megs of ram instead of the usual 64 megs that most other Socket 7 chipsets can cache.
I have a couple boards with this chipset and think they have potential...somehow. I suppose these would make nice Cyrix MII systems.
At any rate, your board looks to be in excellent condition. Of course you could sell it on ebay, but I've been looking on ebay yesterday after a 3 year hiatus and ebay seems to have turned into some terrible monster 😒
But personally I'd keep it, it seems to be somewhat more uncommon then those standard TX boards

Yup, the barrel has just started to leak, will replace it ASAP.
I think the L2 cache is real on this PcChips mobo.

I got a PCI sound card with Yamaha XG chip
A Cyrix 287XL+ (I know there were forgeries made of this chip, but I got it cheaply enough that it's a non-issue if it is)
A CT5803 SoundBlaster PCI
768mb of PC100 memory for one of my Dell Optiplex GX1's to max it out
Found a strange Atari 65XE machine. It was made for commercial use but it's unusual in that it has the extended cartridge port like on the 130XE. North American 65XE's aren't supposed to have that. European 65XE and 800XE models did, but those are PAL and this isn't as far as I can tell.
Picked up a second ATi Rage Fury MAXX (but I may have mentioned that in a previous post, I couldn't remember so I poseted it here anyway)
512k Mac that turned out to have a Mac Plus motherboard inside BUT at the same time I bought that I also found a factory 512k board with a Dove 2mb RAM upgrade on it so it now sits in the 512k case and I'm deciding the fate of the Mac Plus board.
Picked up a ATX to Dell proprietary motherboard power harness to mount a standard ATX PSU in the same GX1 that I bought the RAM upgrade for. I've done this swap before and these harnesses are worth their weight in gold. They are only available sporadically, though, so you have to grab one when someone has them for sale or else it may be a long wait until someone else acquires some.

Hello!
I am new here... I have been collecting graphics for several years.
I am looking for someone with whom I could exchange some cards...
If there are any interested people then please write me a private message.
Here are some samples of my collection.
Regards.

😲 Your collection is truly awe inspiring! Stunning collection you have there!
Btw, I already replied to your other post, selling and buying isn't allowed on this forum (captains orders 😜 ) and an unrelated question, where are you located? 😜

Thanks once agian 😉 Those are pictures taken more than half a year ago so they are a little bit outdated - I have got more cards of course 😁 I attach the rest of the picutres from that period (even though that I know that it is probably in the wrong section...)
I come from center Europe...
BTW, for me exchanging does not equal buying or selling 😜

Beautiful cards! The Hercules cards are my favorites. I think it's the blue PCBs I like the best.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

Thanks luckybob! I love them too! I wish that Hercules had made more of those blue cards...
I attach the ones from PowerVR separately and also the onse from ATI together with the rest. I do not have much from Nvidia though ;/ but I wish I had (I think there were blue Geforce 2 and Geforce 3 from Hercules. They did not make GeForce 4 lines and the Ones before GeForce 256 were green - am I right?)
