The best video about vintage hardware I've ever seen. I don't know who you are but you are an artist. Congratulations and thanks for sharing. Of course I signed up and turned on notifications. Now I'm sharing it on my Facebook group. Fabulous
Such a magnificent build! I am going to use the same processor and a pci 486 too. Hope someday we see a benchmark video and a handful of games being played on it. :3
Some random thoughts I had while watching: You know it's a quality motherboard because it says so on the manual cover. Curious George is getting edumacated. He means srs bzniz. This is some really great camera work! If you're going to network that PC, what are you connecting to and what network operating system? Love that Superman The Movie wall plaque. AHHH! George scared me! Bad George! Good video. Gets a thumbs up from me.
@@OzzFan1000 Not in my videos yet. I reused old ugly Dell PIII with highly modified exterior. So, it does not look very "period correct" :) but works as a Netware server
@@OzzFan1000 Sure. I spent last 10 years collecting some vintage computer stuff and will show it here. The SuperMan on the wall is actually RCA SelectaVision vinyl Video Disc :)
Neat build! You should really consider popping Windows 95 on there so that you can actually make full use of that AWE32 and your system RAM! The AWE32 can't address its additional RAM for soundfonts in any protected-mode games on DOS, and DOS can't address more than 64MB of RAM anyhow. Likewise you'll get a lot more use out of that Voodoo card using Win95, and if you're making a LANparty build, you can't run glQuake unless you have it :D
Well, not quite. The max memory HIMEM.SYS can address is 64MB. If you use QEMM you can specify much more useable memory on it's command line in CONFIG.SYS. However, from personal experience, Windows 3.1x and Windows sound drivers generally don't react well to that much RAM installed in the system.
you can install and run Windows 95 and have the exact and I mean the exact same DOS as you now have also on the PC. Just change Windows 95/98 so DOS starts first and then you can go into Win95 by typing "win" just like for windows 3.11. I have a Video about that on my channel where you can see the exact things you have to do to make that :) It's very easy though @@Vitaskhr

hi nice video :) did you not know any bios refresing ibm intelistation m pro type 6898? this is a dual slot 1 p2 max dual 333mhz p2 cpu i want a refresing for 366mhz dual p2 cpu treatment no empty 100mhz bus chip place in maybe the dual 400 or 450mhz p2 cpu i refuse thanks forward :)

Thank you so much. My specialty is software. Hardware/electronics is my hobby. Thank you for the subscription 👍
That case is huge! Love the build.
Simm & Isa goodness. This takes me back to nearly my roots. Cut my teeth on a Tandy 1000 around 89.
Sweet build!

Why would someone put this amount of RAM in his 486?
Just found your page! I love watching these types of videos so much. Keep up the amazing work!

Thank you for the review. The PC will be connected to my Novell Netware 4 server and my other PC what I built before
@@Vitaskhr is that up in your videos? I would love to see that server in action.

@@Vitaskhr Would love to see it anyway ;)

beautiful machine
Press the degauss for us!

I want it 🤩
Voodoo 1 was made for Pentium systems. Too overkill here. Same with amount of ram. In ms dos the top ram usable is 32mb i think. Anyway, nice build!
Yeah. But now since I can afford that amount of memory it's interesting to see what will happen if I will max the specs :)
Nope, the max amount of RAM is 64M for MS-DOS, however, I do not know any program that needed more that 6M. But it can run Win95 with this beast.
@@sebastian19745 I may experiment with OS/2 and Win 95 later

I understand the fact you've bought a camera slide mount, but do you have to use it on virtually every shot? I was getting motion sickness!
Hey come you didn't use a CF or SD card for the hard drive?
I used real HDDs. Like the sound
I think the motherboard wants you to install an RTX 4090 on it🤭🤭🤭😋😋😋👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎

No need for that amount of RAM to play Doom. 8MB could easily pull it.
Yeah, even 4MB is enough
The rule of retro-PC building is to max all of the things. 😊
Pci ultimate 486? No. VLB, yes. PCI 486s were inexpensive entry-level computers in their day.
3dfx😢
