Thanks for the tip, I was wondering if the process of clamping on the rj connector was reversible. Seeing how it's done, I agree it should only be done if you don't have a straightforward alternative. There's a plastic wedge inside the rj connector that is supposed to grab on the cable housing as a stress relief. Ideally you would put the leads through as far as they go, so that you can press the wedge in. The wedge is supposed to "self tighten" (as wedges do) when you pull on the cable. This way it is less likely for your connector.to separate from the cable.

This channel is a hidden jem. I'm gonna binge these videos all day.

I'm curious is there any reason for choosing that HP display?

Wellp, I tried it. It worked. But the metal pieces really did a number on me

counter-intuitively, the geforce 2 ti was part of the geforce 3 ti line, and it was the entry level card from slowest to fastest: geforce 2 ti < geforce 3 ti 200 < geforce 3 < geforce 3 ti 500 the geforce 3 "normal" was discontinued when the titanium line was announced, though

I bought a Gigabyte 6800gt agp gpu for 15usd about 6 months ago untested. It's getting a little hard finding PCs with agp slots to be honest. A guy selling three custom socket 775 builds sata I with p4 chips for 20usd each just sold em in a day. I hope to get a pc one day to test em with. This made me realize I should try and pair with a core 2 duo. Thanks for the demo.

Hi are you still doing the live?

I don't know what happened back in the day then because my Geforce 2 MX went against my friends Voodoo 5 and came out on top most of the time, I don't remember the rest of the machines specs though so perhaps there was a bottleneck going on or something...

Does anyone have a working link to the Voodoo 3 overclocker installer? All I find online is bullshit that doesn't work...

2:53 - sub to the channel? Now I'm blocking the channel. No dude. Don't EVER ask me that. This is the INTERNET. We don't care about you - we just want information. BUG OFF.

thank you

Nice job sir!

Other games you could play on this build: Warcraft 3 (and the expansion) Hitman: Codename 47 Hitman: Silent Assassin *(but with lags) Metal Gear Solid 1 Diablo 2 (and the expansion) Max Payne 1* (but with lags) GTA 3* (but with lags) GTA Vice City (maybe you could play it on lowest settings and with lags; GTA Vice City is well optimized for PC unlike GTA 3 and Max Payne 1. GTA 3 and Max Payne 1 and Hitman: Silent Assassin have terrible optimization.) Metal Gear Solid 2 (maybe but on lowest settings and with lags; However, MGS2 has lots of bugs.)

Will this video card run heroes of might and magic v?

This soundtrack is sooo good!

Turns out, the best retro* game card? *1995 (directx support) - 2005.

7:27 The chipset cooler you have there is a thermalright NB-1. I know this is 3 years late but do not lose that, they're rare little nuggets. They were apparently unobtainium even back when they were being sold, judging by the old forum threads. The heatsink is built along the same principles as their SLK series of CPU coolers, which was their last high-performance line before they adopted heatpipes. I've got a copper one with the P4 mounting hooks, which I jealously guard until I can get an SLK to have a matching set. Also please appreciate that I didn't offer to buy yours for the mounting hardware lol.

I had that same case for my system of that era. Unfortunately I couldn't afford a real Pentium CPU back then, and had to get by with a Cyrix 6x86 PR166, which performed pretty bad running Quake, due to the extremely slow FPU. For Christmas in 1996 I received a 3dfx Voodoo 1 which allowed me to run GLQuake, and claw some performance back. I ran that system for a couple of years until I built a legendary overclocked Celeron 300A @ 450MHz system, with a Riva TNT1 card.

I was there Gandalf, I was there 3000 years ago!!!

by any chance if u can extract that Creative boot logo and share? That would be cool. Great video!

The Pentium 2 233 mhz MMX I had ran this game at a much more acceptable framerate. You should see if you can track that processor down.

What I dislike about the Voodoo is the biliniear filtering gives weird edges around 2D elements and the sky is broken.

geforce pcx version with two nv30 cores is better than geforce 6800 ultra

I managed to achieve an average of 92 FPS in 4K resolution with RT Ultra settings on an 11-year-old PC: th-cam.com/video/NOBOfeSEmjU/w-d-xo.html

Finally! The good stuff

chaotic good all day long! good ol ssi

Use Norton Commander :) Make your life easier :)

Nice video, just found an Asus M2N with this iGPU on the street 😉

NICE!!!

today tech is supposed to be less complicated

How many attempts to find the shortest route?

I played the MDK demo so many times I lost count. Good times.

except doom (can be fixed changing the soundfonts), the sb cleaned the floor with the sc-55 LOL

If you want a modern interpretation of this classic game try GRIP, it took me right back.

I spent hours of time on this game. the audio tracks on this game is crazy. MMX on my compaq presario and i still have the sidewinder joystick with the box $89.99 sticker on it.

10:00 Serius Sam. The problem with the 2x Antialiasing in with the Voodoo 4, which drops the FPS to unplayable is the fact that Voodoo 4 has only 32MB ram. Because of the 2x anti-aliasing the card has to keep 2 frame buffers only for anti aliassing (a frame buffer is 1024*768*4byte = 3MB, and we need at least 4 from them, because of the triple buffering, and a depth buffer. Total it makes 3*4=12MB. With anti aliasing we double the one buffer, which makes it 16MB. The textures are eating a lot of memory as well. To render a picture, always new textures needed depending where the player located. And that's why less memory means the textures has to be swapped more frequently from the system RAM. Because you are using a PCI version of the card, which has only 33MHz Speed on 32bit, you can make the math, how slow is the data transmission rate from CPU to Voodoo. The 2x AGP card, is 4 times faster as PCI.

It would be good to do a benchmark on it.. to compare with non accelerated version.

what resolution are you running it in?

My 1st PC was a DX2 66 from late 93, i upgraded it to 8MB in 1994 so that it could play the games you have mentioned.. love it.

You can remove the yellowing of it.. just google how to retro brite it.

In my view the sweet spot for Voodoo2 was around P3 600, it does scale up to P3 800 and anything after is a waste. When it came out the fastest P2 you could get (2 m after Voodoo2 came out) was P2 450. So if you are aiming at that 1998 period correct HW, stick to that.

Sell?

Ive been building something similar. Its an Asus P5E3 Premium motherboard with an intel core 2 duo e8600 (3.33ghz, air cooled with zerotherm nirvana), corsair 1600 ddr3 (8gb installed but as its xp home it only uses 4), gtx 780ti and a 650w corsair power supply. All these parts i got for free over time, except the 780ti, which was an ebay buy for £28 to replace the free 580 that it had. Not even stretching it's legs on Crysis 2, let alone anything else 😅

Vindo lá do RIRIS

Ohh, hi tehere Sucra, couldn't help myself but watch your "old" video LOL. Just was looking for some nforce 430 IGP tests and how it compare to older cards under 98 (if it is even possible at all) and your video came very high on my search.

Português!

cut to me playing Unreal Tournament 3 at 320x240 resolution on this card

So unless you are running the original copy of pacific assault, the EA digital version is modded to support 16:9 and to support modern OS. I own the original, It is a direct X 8.1 title and runs on windows 98se. I can play it flawlessly on a athlon XP 3000 with a ati 9800 pro max settings at 1024 x 768 ( most common res of the time, were still in the transition from CRT to crappy early LCD TN panels. )

Tur4x can support up to 2gb of ram, what a legend.

9600 Pro the the first true gaming GPU i owned; picked it for my PC back in 2004 originally to play World of Warcraft but ended up getting sucked into other games instead. Had many hours of gaming on that thing. Still have the box, but the card is long gone. RIP my 9600 Pro.
