A True Classic

A True Classic

This is an album on my first ever pc as a kid which i used to play Quake and Doom on and it is getting a rebuild as my friend spilled curry all over the motherboard, cpu and video card when we were having a serial link lan playing games together haha. i have found none of these machines in my life before and the machine has a few rare components in it so i have to make it last. The Adaptec Scsi card had a huge!!! cut out if it because the cpu is in the way so i soldered a couple of wire jumpers in to make the card work again for that missing chunk of pcb. Now the Ram sockets are only holding by one latch so they are bending in a curve from the stress lol! so i have to de-solder both of them and replace them with some metal tagged ones. There is also a trident video card, Dx33mhz 486 cpu and a Diamond sound card as they were backup parts. The specs will be put below.

Manufacture: Dell
Model Name: 210
Cpu: Intel Pentium Overdrive 83mhz (oc)-100mhz all 256k cache chips.

Pretty surprising that a motherboard from 1992-3 has support for the overdrive and has all solid cap capacitors and motherboard manufactures boast about that now?

Hdd: Fujitsu 2.6gb ide
