wooooooooooooaaaaahhh! Nostalgia rush!

Almost makes me whip out the old IBM aptiva from 1997. It has a 233mhz P2 mmx, 128mb ram (absolutly mindblowing amount back then), and 2x5gb bigfoot hdd's. (yeah, that 5,2 inches!), and a built in 2mb ati rage i think. I later upgraded it with a 3dfx voodoo 1 4mb. Holy fuck that was fucking INSANE!
Believe it or not, that rig was at lan parties well into 2003-4.

I recall countless hours of fun gaming with that pc, good times, good times indeed.

Alright, my friend let me scrap a Sound Blaster 16 CT2230, from one of his old rigs, yes that is an ISA card, those ISA ports are fucking scary. Tomorrow i'll scrap a Riva 128 agp out of the rig and mess with that, I can keep both cards in the pc right, seeing as the Voodoo is PCI and the Riva is AGP?

It might be old & slow, but your having fun with it. I can still remember standing in a store looking at a voodoo & nvidia card, ati was not even in the game back then,, I ended up picking the nvidia card, & remember when voodoo went out of biz,, I kinda wish they were still in the game.

Yeah, Voodoo is a sick brand name, nothing could touch Glide quality, but it was annoying trying to play my games at a friends house, they looked worse and ran worse than it did on mine, but that still happens today, only none of my games will run on my friends' rigs.

Mega Bump! Just ordered a Voodoo 2 with the crossover cable on Ebay, hopefully it'll be here in a week, not giving up on this rig. I refuse to play in software rendering mode, I wanna glideeeee.

if i had a super 7 board i'd res my k6-2 with my old school rig.

@madclown, i've got a PII 400 if you want it, at least i think its a 400, going by the model number "80523PY400512PE". I'm assuming the 400 is its speed and the 512 is the cache.
