friend, you really deserved my abo, I am glad that I found your channel, its right down my alley and its so great to know that good and friendly people shares this pleasureful hobbie of diving into retro hw!! where are you from, if I may ask? friendly greets from bavaria in southern germany!
@@MidnightGeek99 I have 2 of them, but it's not such a big difference when it's bottlenecked by some lower Athlon XP or P4. Also 9550 with DDR2 is pretty good for Win 98 compatibility and acceptable peformance and you can buy these literally for 2 eur. 🙂
I just finished a couple win98se builds. Athlon XP 2600+ (Barton) MSI NF2 Ultra 512MB PC2700 9200SE (NIB! lol) I'll throw a 9600 in to compare, should double the fps.
Eu am testat 9600 Pro, 9600 Xt si 9250 pe 128 bit in Gta 3 pe un Pentium 4 la 2.6 Ghz, ddr1, multiple drive-uri si imi sacadeaza grav de tot in GTA 3 dupa cateva minute de joc. Placa de baza fiind AGP 4x iar placile, AGP 8x. La tine face la fel? Asta o fi cauza, pt. ca am epuizat toate setarile si driverele.

Radeon 9600 is the best for compatibility and availability for good price.
Yeah, it's a very good card, but the 9600 XT is what you want.

Ouch, the 9200 SE is awful :) Nice motherboard though!
First the brand new 9200SE for benchmarks then in goes the 9600XT
If aliens invade us, then they will agree that Diablo 2 is the best video game in the history of the universe!
if aliens invade us, they will probably make half life 3 and warcraft 4 with anime style graphics.
They already did, but we were too blind to hear them :(

E de la drivere, clar, nu are treaba ce AGP este. Ai incercat Omega Drivers?
@@MidnightGeek99 Am incercat si la fel face, am facut teste cu toate setarile posibile din setarile driverului Omega, ore intregi.
