Couldn't agree more. Back on topic..

And that's why Samsung won't never sell more than Apple.

Samsung will ever be 5 steps behind Apple.

Most of the sheeps who were caged all their lives are afraid of the open wild.

Don't be afraid, i won't Kick your because you like Android

I'm also Android kind of guy, never really cared much about iStuff. I do have iTouch (1st gen) and it's been working perfectly fine up to the point when it became outdated to keep up with anything useful, so I kinda let it "die" over time. Well, at least the battery part, there's no way I'll pay for new one (not to mention the battery replacement), because I got more than enough Android devices around here On a random note, I seriously hate Samsung though, it really pissed me off! Best Android I ever had was HTC Desire HD, and I feel really bad for selling it & buying new Galaxy Core

Anyhow, back to old shit, just like @agent00skid said...

Working on upcoming 3dfx projects... The latest one involves Athlon XP 1800+ running a pair of 3dfx Voodoo2 reference cards, revisions 1 and 2.0 (therefore different VGA output connectors) All the SLI cables are made by myself, I don't think I need to tell you guys just how difficult would be to get the real thing nowdays, manufactured by 3dfx, Diamond, Creative or similar company!



Windows 95, anyone? I got 3 sealed, never opened before packages + the one for "display" purposes, all for free! I also have a sealed up copy of Win95 on the floppy disks, along with the appropriate copy of Office, also on 3.5" but they're not on any of these pics here.

Also working on the new computer system! Pentium 3 S370, I figured it was time to move up the scale & go for something modern this time, rather than having another Slot-1 all over again This one is totally going to own the games like Half-Life & Unreal, especially with Radeon 7000 and 256mb of RAM! No 3dfx though...



And these ones are just spare boards... All in working condition, I recently pulled out that Matsonic & swapped it for another Asus, TUSI-M (mATX, running Celeron 1.00 Tualatin on the last pic)

You really should find a different image host @Trekkie4 It takes forever for the images to load.

I'm sorry Do you have something better to recommend? I've been using ImageBam for quite some time now, so it kinda became a habit...

There are several.

OK, thanks!

Also @Trekkie4 , the image host your using throws up pop up pages as well.

Once again, I'm really sorry Long time ago, when I was active on GTAForums (for Grand Theft Auto game series), someone recommended Imagebam as reliable solution for image hosting, so I bookmarked the page & been using it ever since... I'll try with TPU next time, there's a lot more to come!

 

[stinger608]

I hear ya man. I have personally been using photobucket for quite awhile now. It has gotten pretty dang slow as well. Years ago it was great.

Another of my AMD systems. This one used to belong to a friend, was all he had to play call of duty 4 and other games of the time on. It had like 384mb ram, just the onboard gfx and a 20gb hdd when he first got it.....got upgraded bit by bit and eventually replaced.

It never really worked 100% though, onboard usb is toast, now and again only 8 of the 16 pci-e lanes work and only certain ddr modules work properly in it.

Specs:
AMD athlon64 2800+ 1.8Ghz........originally a Sempron 2800+
1gb DDR400(2x 512mb Samsung)
Nvidia 9400GT(512Mb)
ECS 761Gx-m754 motherboard
80Gb seagate barracuda 7200.7
LG DVD combo drive
Via 4 port pci usb card(modded so front usb can connect to it)
Windows XP pro
Some or other generic 300W psu.

I really like these 754 like the one i have is snappy. I bought new mobo on ebay maybe 4years ago brand new.

Talking about it i would like to know if they ever made a pci firewire card that have header pins on it so you can plug the FireWire front case connector?

I'm Looking at a SIIG 3 Port external firewire card
link to card is here
http://www.siig.com/it-products/firewire/firewire-400/pci/firewire-3-port-pci-i-o.html

Its PCI and there is a place on the circuit board that is marked port 3 where header pins could be soldered into place.
the trace's link it to port 0 so probably if headers are soldered onto the card it would work

I am pretty sure there are pci firewire cards now how many had headers not sure as there weren't to many cases built with firewire ports on the front that I know of. Now if you have a break out box kinda like what came with Sound blaster Platinum sound cards then to would be good.
