Yup, and 3D pinball was so real I felt like I was there

[Daniel644]

and how much did this $69 dollar computer end up costing after having to buy 2 of them and then the SSD, cd-rom drive and all the other shit that was tacked on to it?

I demand Pentium 4 comparison !
We don't know how good 15FPS in 3DM01SE is.

PS. Remember guys, you need 65nm to run Windows 10 x64 on P4

Why not do one of those xtra-budget AMD APU boards?

 

e.g. the ASRock QC5000M

Only $14 more!

What monitor did they use? Is that ultrawide?

 

EDIT: NVM no way that's ultrawide rofl

I forget how much each motherboard was, I think they were like $30 plus shipping to Canada.  CD-Rom drives are near enough to free if you have an old computer sitting around, and I think that SSD is $100, so the whole thing was around $169 + $30 for broken board.

$69 so you have more money for the honies #amirite.

If I have time tonight I will run 3dmark01se on my P3 1Ghz with an ATI 9800 pro Win 98 SE PC I have for retro gaming. Sure my GPU would be "cheating" but my MB does not have on board video.

 

 

Id love to see Linus pop in a PCI GPU into this puppy. I’m pretty sure Geforce 6000 cards had PCI versions still.

 

 

EDIT: Turns out my P3 win98 PC just crashes on the first test in 3dmark 2k1. I think my GPU is going bad . I may try installing XP on another HDD later because win 98 actually kind of sucks butt so it may not be my GPU. I am way to lazy to do that this week though.

We did get 3D Mark 2001 to work in Windows 10, a system with an i7-7700K plus a 1080 recorded a score of 91002 3D Marks lol

Is that a black-label or a blue-label Model M? @AlexTheGreatish

It's an old Dell keyboard that I believe uses Black ALPS switches

An AT101, I assume? Black Alps are some of my favourite vintage switches.

[tsk]

Holy crap that 3D mark 2001SE benchmark gave me nostalgia, damn I'm old.

Magin, those things are basically magic on my fingers

Legit curious how well that Raspberry Pi 2/3 kit linked in the video description would perform in PC gaming.

Alex, I made an account just to say "GO TERPS!" I was in Terps Racing '16 but for Formula. Keep up the good work.
