Have been following this channel for years, just wanted to say thank you for your content - I've never been using computers in the 90s (and haven't been AROUND in 1980s), but I've read about them as a kid, so seeing them come to life through your videos sort of makes me feel like that "faraway land" of PC games from my childhood came to life. Hope it makes sense to anybody else ^_^ Anyway - thank you!
GeorgGreat makes sense to me, although I’m older. It lets me experience computer things that were simply out of my budget as a young adult at the time. In the early ‘90s I was still using a C-64, and when I got my first Windows 3.1 PC in 1994, it was a 286 that was already painfully old. I actually had to downgrade it’s EGA graphics because the main thing I used a computer for was title generation on VHS audio tapes.
Clint, after using your back catalog to distract me from basically the world for the last couple of weeks, the "social distancing Klondike" joke caused an actual snort. Thanks for keeping on, I'm likely not the only viewer appreciating your work for this reason.
THAT'S MY CARD! I remember being like 14 and my dad taking me to Microcenter to buy this. Didn't know what it was for back then but it was a viper made out of diamond :-)
@@jpsilvashy I'm sure we got it a year after it came out on discount. The first game I played though on it was rise of the robots. VESA what's that who cares? This is 1994
Oddly satisfying at two minutes into the video, he pulls out three VLB cards....and I have two of these models myself. Now I want to see more vids on this topic. More vids please!
@@PJL3791 I'd love it if that quote becomes incredibly outdated sooner rather than later. What an achievement it will be when we can put this all behind us one day, with enough hard work and responsible/appropriate action taken over the coming months!
@@LGR Indeed, but in the meantime, it feels like even going outside is a bit like going to the area around Chernobyl soon after the meltdown. This is without a doubt going to be the defining event of our lives, at least for those in the western world, if only because it has had a bigger impact on our everyday lives than anything else I can remember.
Love the quality of this video (like your others). Little things like the sweeping depth of field effect, highlighting the little chips you're talking about. Very nice, haha. And the captures of the video out is also top-notch, as is the narration. Keep up the great work!!
@@LGR I've watched all your videos at this point, and I see the trend. Just wanted you to know that it's noticed and appreciated -- I mean I would do the same, and I really appreciate it, haha
That Workstation vibe with Windows 3.1 is phreaking awesome, and now I'm sentimental about my old UltraSPARC with 21" Sun/Sony Trinitron monitor that did crispy flat 1600x1200 at 75Hz.
This channel is oddly addicting. Haven't seen or messed with a lot of this stuff in two decades, brings it all back. Find some time to do a C64 Maniac Mansion retrospective! That was one of my favorite games and it took forever to figure out. The command driven UI and dozens of different possible solutions was awesome. Green Tentacle!
You consistently manage to take things that I’m certain won’t interest me, and make them incredibly interesting. Some of the highest quality content on RUclips (at least to me). Thank you for all your hard work!
Man, I just dig your flashbacks! What amazes me is that these 27 year old devices just keep on ticking, that, and the fact that you can breeze around these old programs like they were made yesterday... Great stuff man, you bring back a lot of memories! 👍👍
Just wanted to say love all your video's, seen them all, big fan. Into all genre's of modern gaming but still a big retro gamer and all things PC old and new so your vids really hit the spot. Can't wait for this years thrifting, please tell me that you are doing a new series, anyway keep up the great work, always watching for the next one.
Clint. As always thanks for the content, but especially these days. Your videos are so cozy and they take my mind off of the world and bring me back to a simpler time when my love for computers was just blossoming. I hope you and yours are well. Stay healthy and thank you.
This channel takes me back to happier times when I was younger. From the early 80s on, I've played with the older computers (C64, x86, old Apple, Wang, etc), and always loved in my adult years the older technology. Thanks much, this helps remind me of time gone by when my parents were still here.
Video from LGR to Friday - a real gift !!! Yes, 1280x1024 for Windows 3.1 - really something incredible! After all, such a screen resolution has become common only around Windows XP ... We will look forward to a powerful 2D card to 486 WoodGrain !!! =) Thank you for the video!!!
I remember selling a few of these to customers running AutoCAD. It was a game changer for drafters as they were able to work with much larger drawings than possible at an ok price point.
My first nVidia card was a Diamond Viper 550, it used the Riva TnT chip, and had actual Hardware Transform & Lighting! Ohh man was I excited to install that thing. Thanks for the amazing video!
Clint, you're keeping my teen years alive... thank you. Seeing the names of those various accelerators brought a surge of early 90s nostalgia. I remember the day a neighbor gave me her late husband's 486, it was as if Christmas had come early (or at all) :) We were really poor, that 486 machine replaced a C64c that I was still using in 1992. Funnily I have more nostalgia for the c64 than for the 486.
Wow. Just happened across this video. I was 13 and just starting to play with computers when this card came out. It was fun seeing you play games I used to play all the time when I was a kid. From day to day, it doesn't really seem like much has changed, but looking back at this- it really has.
Great review Clint! I do recall seeing an Accelerator Card from this brand way back - definitely bringing nostalgic vibes on this one! Anyway, looking forward to the next one bro'! Stay safe (due to COVID-19), more power, and God bless!
I LOVE your videos, I'm a huge fan of old tech and your videos are amazing, so relaxing and fun to watch, thank you for the countless hours of entertainment and helping me relax
I thoroughly enjoy your channel, very informative and nostalgic at the same time. You always do an awesome job of giving us an overview of how older technology worked and evolved into today's technology, we take things like graphics cards, RAM, CPU, etc. for granted. Back then they were not readily accessible or affordable. You were stuck with what you had. It's always cool to see these things in action, keep it up.
Dang dude, this makes me happy. I honestly wish I knew more about this sort of stuff, it really interests me but its hard for me to wrap my head around. I dont even know where to start or what to look up to begin with. I'd like to mess with older computers someday. Great video
I'm glad I was laying down while watching this video when you dropped the 2MB bomb that was the tech stat of this graphics card. Those specs? Could've floored me.;-) Reminds me of a great American philosopher who once opined, "Smokin'!"
"not to mention resolutions up to 1280x1024 at 74 hertz" exactly what my monitor was running at when i was watching this... maybe i need to upgrade if that was good in 1993
During my 486 time, my first video card was a Realtek with an ISA16 interface, slow slugish and 256 colors, then a Western Digital VLB, then a S3-864 which was really fast under Dos and under Windows 3.1. I then switched to a Pentium with a Matrox Mystique, another league indeed.
I remember looking at numerous video cards back in the day when I built my first 486-66 beast. I considered this card, but ended going with an Orchid Fahrenheit VLB card.. awesome card. This video brings me back, man..
Why does the ZD WinBench include a picture of the Raleigh traffic sign? Fun fact: As it happens I worked for ZD Publishing in NYC back in the 90s and ZD Benchmark Operation, or ZD BOp as it was called internally in those days, was based not far from you in Research Triangle. I made many trips down there for various testing projects back in the day. Good times.
One of my products back in the day. A primary goal of these products was high scores on the Windows performance tests which were a prime factor in winning awards and OEM deals for the big box PC builders of the day. Speed, resolution, color in windows + awards = serious $$$$$, back in the day. The Viper did very well.
Orchid Farenheit.. Diamond Viper.. Loved the naming of stuff back then . Still in love with the Diamond Viper V770 - best product name ever. Matrox Millenium is up there too!
I am so glad LGR exists. I think I was 13 last time I opened\saw the parrots opened in PS3 on Win3.1. Thx for the nostalgia overdose almos no one else can provide!
Oooh, now I remember! So this is the thing I used to read about in the "Windows 3.1 for Dummies" book! It was described sparsely, and I kept wondering what the heck is a "graphical accelerator card" and "vesa local bus card", It made me think those are different things outside the video card. I kept asking around in shops but no one knew what I was talking about (this was in the early 2000s and I was given a Windows 95 PC and didn't know anything :D )
To be fair, neither were shopkeepers very well versed in IT, for example the book store's whole IT section consisted just a shelf full of freshly printed (!?) DOS and Windows 3.1 Dummies books, yet barely anyone had PCs with those here in 1993, let alone 2003.
Thanks Clint :) Always love your videos. Still trying to sort out my mouse problem on my Dos computer. I've been keeping an eye out for Voodoo 2's to add to it tho, but they are kinda pricey.
I'm spanish and I had either a CirrusLogic CL-GD5446 and a TsengLabs ET-4000, and both gave me the best results in gaming. S3 cards and STB failed most of times due to some issues with my Gravis sound card, which later I changed it to Sounblaster 32 AWE.
I love these reviews of high priced exotic items from so long ago, it puts into perspective using Windows 3.1 PCs before I had my own and my first PC running Windows 95 in 1997. I think I bought a matrox 3d card for that one and a better pentium 2 processor before it got CIH virused and I needed to buy a new BIOS chip. Fun times 🙂

Had this card on one of our Autocad workstations back then, it was pretty damn good. Don't think i ever tried to play a game on it.
Yup same. For Autocad it was highly desirable.
It's wild how few pins those old processors have
lol. Go look at an Intel 4004.
Its even wilder that you can pull out an AMD unit and replace it with an Intel unit.
