Due to Covid-19 I advanced some of my retro projects that I've planned for the next winter season 😉
Please find here my 1998 rebuild:
Board: MSI MS6119 Ver. 1.1 (1998)
CPU: Pentium II, 400 450 MHz (upgade info see below)
RAM: 128MB, Mo SDRAM PC100, Hyundai GMM26416233ENT
2D-Grafik: Matrox G200A, 8MB (1998)
3D-Grafik: SLI 2x Voodoo 2, Creative Labs CT6670, 2x12MB (1998)
Sound: SB 128 PCI, CT4700 (1998)
HDD: 6,4gb IDE, IBM DTTA-350640 (1998)
ODD: DSR-520H DVD-ROM (5,2X/32X), DVS Korea Co. (Feb. 1999)
FDD: 1.44 MB 3.5", D359T7, Newtronics Mitsumi
Case: NoName ATX (ca. 199x)
PSU: ATX 380W, Seasonic SS-380GB Active PFC F3
OS: Windows 98SE (incl. Updates)
Honestly, this isn't my most favoured Retro-build because I've never got friends with 3dfx before the Voodoo 3 as single card solution came out.
There was always, due to the Loop-through, this loss in video quality.
Working in grapic business, despite of the good 3D performace, this was always a no go for me.
best wishes & stay well

Building my own PCs since 1991 - for my retro builds it's "no CF-disks, no Floppy emulators, no modern cases etc.", only the real and authentic stuff whenever possible.
