Retro guts thread

I'll get it started.

>PIII 1ghz Coppermine
>512mb RAM
>Gigabyte Baby AT board
>3dfx Voodoo 4500, this will likely become a watercooled GeForce 2 Ultra AGP or Rage Fury Maxx, because reasons
>SB16 ISA
>Adaptec 29160 SCSI with 5x 73gb SCSI stack 15k RPM
>W98SE SP3

Plays CS 1.6, HLDM, UT99, Delta Force 2 and Soldier of Fortune

Have a similar AMD K6-3+ 450 build I may slap together with a Voodoo 5500 AGP, might watercool the whole thing on GP

This one is a project I slapped together before I went back on the road and haven't finished yet but I have got to the POST phase

Bumpin because interests and guy with retro RAID machine is cool

Hmmm, should I post the guts of my Pentium M box?

Why don't I see the guts of your Pentium M box already?

>Socket 462
Socket A

Here

>Pentium M 760 underclocked to 1500mhz (not by choice, CPU is 533mhz FSB board is 400mhz FSB)
>AOpen i855GMEm-LFS motherboard
>Zalman CNPS7000-AlCu
>1GB Corsair Valueram @ 333mhz (again, not by choice, Ram is 400mhz board will not go faster than 333 on the memory divider)
>Shitty Nvidia FX 5200 128MB (any suggestions on replacements for this?)
>40GB Seagate PATA HDD
>400W Antec Neo Eco PSU
>Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS

It works well enough for its purpose, but the graphics card definitely needs upgrading, and I need to get Pentium M 755 for it as it would kick the CPU speed back up to 2ghz.

Sitting pretty with

>tnt riva2
>Some gigabyte Mobo I can't remember
>Dedicated network and sound cards because non-integrated

Currently still running Windows XP from when I was a kid (used to have win98.)

Posted this last night in another thread, maybe it's a little too old for this thread however.

Noice, how well does that HDD replacement thing work?

It works well enough, it takes some configuration as typical with some models before installation but aside from it not making sound it pretty much works the same as a SCSI drive does.

So unless you are a die-hard fan of hearing a classic HDD spin up it is a damn good replacement.

I'd put in a 6600GT or 6800 Ultra that should be about period for that setup. They were offered in AGP flavors, I had one years back.

>Zalman CNPS 5000
>XP2100
>2gb DDR333
>Ti4600
>SCSI stack

or I may transfer the whole thing over I don't know yet. 9 SCSI disks that's going to be a BAMF

I don't know about the rest of you, but the green PCB that all boards were always done in was absolute sex to me.

Whenever I see modern shit in that color scheme the child inside me has the biggest fucking grin.

>retro computing

I.
Have.
Too.
Much.

No guts pics of this thing yet, will take some (and maybe make a video) when my G4 CPU and some other things I ordered for it arrive.

And I keep adding more. It's a goddamn addiction. Just picked up all these AGPs last weekend, among other things.

here mine.

a few upgrades in there but still in an ancient case

You need to be over 18 to post here, kid.

Just installed Mac OS 9 on my iMac G3. It runs so much better on this.

>PowerPC G3 400MHz
>320 MB RAM
>ATI Rage 128 Pro
>Some shit 10 GB Seagate drive.

Nice image

BEHOLD THE POWER OF MY CIRRUS LOGIC.

OS Baka is the comfiest Mac OS ever.

Yeah, i didn't look at the other pics before posting. I'm out of my league.

I'm 30 years old though, but all my old guts are left with my parents

The aesthetics are beautiful enough for this to be my new daily driver.

how much to send a ThinkCenter to me :^)
I am trying to replace a super old mac at my work

I've been selling them for 50 bucks just to get rid of them.

You can almost get there with some theming, but it definitely isn't the same.

PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS BUMP

excuse my ignorance...
sparc?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPARC

idk man. it just looked a little like something I saw on ebay

Your hoard is pornographically tidy. Those old Gateways on the left seem neat, I remember having one with a Q6600 and an 8800GT 1GB, it was a beast back in 2008-09, I guess it would still cut through some tasks easily.

(pic of my messy hoard corner)

NeXTstation

quadra guts

PS/VP guts

abhorrent guts

partial hppa guts

Please tell me that isn't a modern Baby-AT board in an XT case.

Low end HPPA guts.
Also a pizzabox that can run NEXTSTEP

nice chioce of a mobo. take a look at the modded bioses for this one, worth it, ultimately you can do a voltmod for VDD and VDIMM they're fairly easy

here's my nf7-s 2.0, got 2 more of these one killed :( xp-m sitting in this one usually around 2500mhz

My P3 shitbox
Pentium 3 Katmai 600MHz
512MB PC133 (really 1GB but the board doesn't recognise 512MB sticks properly)
S3 Trio
100Mb/s Ethernet
18GB SCSI HDD + 80GB IDE
Sound Blaster 16 (not in pic, too lazy to take another at the moment)

slot 1 is fuckin cool, nice build man

is that celery 400A?

And my G3 B+W
G3 350MHz
1GB PC100 RAM (really 1.5GB PC133 but again mobo doesn't do full speed or capacity)
Rage 128 with DVD decoder card
Media 100 analogue video I/O card.

thanks bb.

Got the case + board + CPU + S3 video card off the side of the road, strangely the PSU, all drives, RAM and unknown cards were gone before I got to it.

Neatly stashed, and likely to appreciate over time.

>Media 100 analogue video I/O card
I have one of those, came with my beige G3. Could it be possible for you to trace out the pinout of the breakout cable? I don't have it but would really love to use the card to capture stuff from my old VHS-C and Video8 cameras.

Unfortunately I have a lot more that's not so tidy...

that looks really nice
are you using it for NeXTSTEP or HP-UX 10.x/9.x?
:^)
:v)
:o)

>Media100
nice, do you have the breakout box for it too?
