- This is my IBM Netvista M41 vintage pc, a Pentium 4 at 1.5 ghz, with an Asus ATI Radeon 9550 AGP video card and 512 MB ram.
Best details of the hardware you can see @LGR • Exploring the IBM NetV...
Even that the system has support for Windows ME and Windows 2000 Professional, I tested some games under Windows 98 SE.
I was having fun and I lost track of time. If you get bored, these are the times of the tested games:
Moto Racer 3 - at 23 mins
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit II - at 31 mins
Alien versus Predator Gold - at 38 mins
Quake 3 - at 47 mins
Quake 2 multiplayer with Eraser bots - at 55 mins.
This is the retropc system that I consider perfect, all that's missing is some sata ports and a Creative Sound Blaster. Cool IBM case. If you sell this system, I'll buy it! ;)👑
Had this exact case atleast...with a 750??(733 or 750)mHz P3 in it for college. Turned out to be a right capable little machine with a RAM bump, plus the addition of a decent ATI PCI Graphics Card (if there was such a thing when AGP was the all the noise lol) and I also added a SB Audigy. Worked great for school, played most games at the time, and was a hell of a "jukebox" for the dorm parties with that Audigy in it. Thing put out such a clean sound. Anways Nice to see these still floating around.
Thanks for the comment. The Pentium III variant is a bit hard to find these days. Those Pentium III were very good cpus. I like this machine becouse it is very versatile. I installed win 98 on it, but the stickers on the case say "designed for windows me and 2000", and I saw people on the internet with winxp installed on it. So 4 operating systems supported. Very cool!
@@retroboby007 I sure liked my little P3. My buds at the time had an Athlon Tbird build, and the other a brand new P4 Dell. I was somewhat close to the Athlon Tbird, but that P4 Dell ate everyones lunch at the time lol...The pc landscape moved sooo fast back then. Anywho, great vid. Cheers!
18:50 Something is wrong... My PIII 450 is faster in 640x480. ;)
You are right. I think is the video card. In ms-dos is using very limited resources without any drivers.
