Hello Vogoners!
I want to build 3 systems.
I will share my pc parts inventory which you can suggest me to use.... But, also, you can suggest a card or mainboard out of my inventory as well, I can try to find and buy them.
Let's have a look at each system.
System I
This machine is going to be the strongest and the most stable Voodoo 2 SLI system. I've checked Phil's guide on this and build a system as follows;
Mobo: GA-6VXE7 Rev3.0
CPU: Pentium III-933
Ram: 512MB
3D GPU: 2x 3DFX Voodoo 2 12MB SLI (using fast voodoo drivers I can see "SLI Detected" w/o any problem).
OS: Win98SE
Audio: YOU SAY 😀
2D GPU: YOU SAY 😀 (I tried with Matrox G450+ but if you have a better suggestion you're welcome)
System II
This machine purpose is very straightforward. I do have a Roland MT32 device and all peripherals cables needed to connect (no mpu, I will use softmpu). Mostly I will play Lucas Adventure games and other MT32 supported titles. Only dos games.
For this purpose, I've chosen a 486 system.
Mobo: Mitac IH4077CN
CPU: YOU SAY 😀
Ram: YOU SAY 😀
Graphics: Cirus Logic VLB Card (I only have one VLB card I will use it. Any other suggestions or am I fine with that)?
OS: Dos 6.22
Audio: YOU SAY 😀
System III
This machine will be somewhere in the middle. Swiss knife machine. It will support windows games and also dos games (which can't be playing on 486) I "maybe" use My Roland SC-55 with this machine too but not necessarily. Because I am more an adventure gamer than I am a fps player.
For this purpose, I thought Pentium system.
Mobo: Tekram P5T30-B4E
CPU: YOU SAY 😀
Ram: YOU SAY 😀
Graphics: YOU SAY 😀
OS: Dos 6.22 + Windows 95 OSR2 (or Win98?) (or just pure Dos 6.22 for late dos games?
Audio: YOU SAY 😀
Let's see my inventory (in case any misidentifying cards, I've uploaded all my cards front and back photos as follows you can also check them)
