Sure it beat some of the old cards when it came out, but it was quickly outdated. Plus while it worked good on the openGL shooters, that was about all it was good at. If you didnt play shooters it didnt do much for you. Geforce 2 was an all around better card.

Larger ram sticks are hard to run at their full speed in systems, you are very dependant on your cpus memory controller. Sounds like your cpu is just unable to handle those 32 GB sticks at full speed, or with the extra old sticks. You may want to see if there is a bios update, as those can...

I have my 2 geforce 256's, a SDR and DDR model. Neither seemed that great at the time, and were not supported for very long. Now my geforce 2's got used a lot, and I have them in several of my retro systems. Much better and a more useful card.

Might be interested in the xeon system

These are the cards I had in my main systems over the years, not counting all the others I had in secondary systems or accumulated in parts. Voodoo 3500 TV Voodoo 5 Geforce 2 GTS Geforce 3 Ti 200 Geforce 4 Ti 4200 Radeon 9500 pro Radeon 9800 pro Radeon X1950 pro Radeon 3850 Geforce 9800 GTX...

Pretty much, you cant do anything online or multiplayer. The game lost years of custom maps and scenarios along with clans when they decided to get rid of the old game.

You can play the original one, but if you try to take it online to play multiplayer it auto updates to the reforged edition. It can only be used as a single player game offline.

High DPI lets you move your mouse cursor fast and large distances without having to move your mouse large amounts.

I got the last one, so this time its your turn. You know you need it....for reasons

They stopped focusing on DDR4, so all the tesing and binning they did for it stopped. They are only worried about higher speeds on DDR5.

People also use those small SSD drives in retro computers since most cant handle too large of a drive. Plus it is a speed up from old spinning rust.

I have a similar set of corsair sticks but mine are 3466. Everyone at the time said that they would go to 3600 no problem, but I could never get them to run at anything over 3466. More voltage, nope, looser timings, nope, they would not go any higher and it would lock up trying to post. At...

I used that heyboard from 1998 until 2016, and only reason I stopped using it was my sick cat threw up a bunch of liquid on it and it was never the same again. I completely took it apart and cleaned it, but several keys never worked again and I ended up having to replace it with a corsair keyboard.

The top one i The top one is the caddy one, as it has the bump out on the tray left side so you can open the door to get the caddy in. The other two look like tray style.

RIP plextor...I salute my old SCSI plexwriter and ultraplex drives in my old duallie under my desk.

I just do it like I did when I was a kid, fill each side up with hydrogen peroxide and it breaks down and clears all the wax out. Super easy and cheap, using the same bottle I bought 6 years ago.

They were okay but the tualatin ones were the best, they clocked pretty high and had the heatspreader. The only bad limitation of them were that you needed rare compatiable boards to use them or a conversion socket.

Yeah I had a pair of 300As in it, I tried several up to the 533 speed ones but none of them could clock high enough with the 100 fsb. With the 66 fsb they were slower than my 300As at 450, so I just ended up keeping the 300As as those seemed the sweet spot.

Only good celerons were the dual ones in the Abit BP6, that made up for a lot of their shortcomings. I know I used mine for a long time with windows XP, and it was a quick and snappy system. I had a gig of ECC memory and a SCSI hard drive on it.

I bought it off gog yesterday and Ill be playing it once I am done with my current game. The offline installer was pretty huge, it was 112Gb in 4Gb chunks so it took a while.

I bought new fan sets off amazon for both my 980Ti and my 7950 cards about 5 years ago. I did some searching to find the part numbers I needed and the ones I ordered were exactly the same as the ones from my ortiginal cards down to the stickers on the fans. Still working fine 5 years later.

Yeah thats the one I bought, Ive only had 2 power outages so far and it gave me more than enough time to shut my system down. Havent had any power issues at all, I keep my system, monitor, router, and cable modem all plugged into it. On top of that I have random old retro systems and monitors...

I had an APC unit for 15 years, only had to replace the batteries twice. Near the end I had to toss it as it developed a fault in the relay where it just kept switching between battery and live constantly. I got my moneys worth out of it so I just bought a cyberpower unit to replace it, and...

I think the days of the MMO are over, to many big companies see how much it costs to develop and set one up and dont want to spend the money on them. They would rather do a live service game with little effort and tons of microtransactions and season passes, then watch the money roll in.

Yeah it is likely the flyback in it died, RIP FW900. If some company started making flybacks for the FW900 again, I wonder how many units could be saved.

Ill have to drag out my old server, its an Asus A7M266-D with a pair of barton MP's in an Antec SX1240 case. Thing weighs a metric ton though and is a pain to move. Pretty sure the PSU in it died after the last time I had it running to pull all my old data off the drives, it was a capacitor...

Not suprised at all how this turned out, but I am slightly suprised they closed up shop 4 days after the release of thier game though. I expected them to try stringing people along with all sorts of promises, and then abandoning it in a few months like all their other games.

Yeah I own both of those cards sapphire 3850 and an XFX 4670, they were my last gasp of my AMD XP system before I was finally forced to replace it.

That big crack by the screwhole may have broken a trace that it needs to use to boot. Almost looks like it was dropped and something heavy fell on it and bent and broke the board.

And now there is 34 different dongle standards....

Bifurcation is exactly what you are trying to do, but like the previous poster said your motherboard has to support this or it will not work. Also what was mentioned before is when a 16x slot supports 8x/8x mean that when you use the slot paired with it they both run at 8x. The 16x slot runs...

Yeah the 820 camino chipset, that ended up getting up getting killed off as it had some bad flaw in the chipset.

Ah an classic enlight case, I still have a few of them. They were my go to case back in the day, had my P3 system in it back in the late 90's.

Lets see if I can figure out what cards you have in there based on the backs Top one looks like a linksys network card second card looks like a soundblaster live Bottom card looks like a voodoo 3 Not sure what slot 1 board it is though, Gigabyte used those gold northbridge heatsinks but it...

I was going to get a X360 back in the day but with all the problems they had I waited to get one after they redid the internals. I ended up getting the black X360 elite version, and ended up barely using it. That also ended up being the last console generation I bought, PS3 and X360.

You may want to look back and see what flash memory cost back in the late 80's and early 90's. Heck the PS1 memory cards used 1 meg and were $25 back at launch. Sure they were overpriced, but imagine what a 32 meg eprom cost 2 years earlier. Plus the game carts had to be bought through...

/ I was based of the amount of chips and size of the eproms in the carts. I bought mostly RPGs back then so those always used the bigger ones so they always tended to be much more expensive. They even got more expensive during the SNES days. The most I paid for a SNES game was when I bought...

Limit is usually 3 to 5 batteries per day, but you may want to talk to the manager and see what he can do for you.

I use it and it makes it pretty much painless. You click it after updates and it tells you what has been changed, and you can change it back. It also show you all the things you can turn off, and what you shouldnt.

Well after some searching found a newegg link to it https://www.newegg.com/kingmax-256mb-168-pin-sdram/p/N82E16820154002R Also some other searching it came out somewhere around 2000-2001 as that seems when most of these threads about it were from. Some things also about corruption from the...
