Introduction
Hello guys, I am usually looking for a desktop computer compatible for DOS (usually from) and Windows 95/98 era games. When I saw listings for Windows 98 gaming computers on eBay, I am usually choosy regarding the specifications. Here's the following specifications that I am considering:
- Processor: Intel Pentium MMX 233MHz to Pentium II or an AMD K6-II+/K6-III+ or a VIA C3 (thanks clueless1 and RJDog for the recommendations)
- 64-128MB system RAM (more RAM would be recommended up to 256MB)
- 32GB hard drive
- 3Dfx Voodoo 2/3 or NVidia GeForce 256 (or any graphic card that can be used for DOS games)
- Hardware DVD/MPEG2 decoder (useful for running Tex Murphy: Overseer)
- PCI WiFi card
- RPC-1 DVD drive
I also saw something on my local online classifieds, which is an HP Vectra for $20.19 [₱1000] (which is suited for DOS and Windows 98 gaming). Which this desktop has a Pentium III processor and an Intel 815 graphics chip, which might not look good, but would be good for early DirectX titles and DOS games.
