I would say genuinely say a 9600 Pro would be a good match for a single chip (if it's at least a 733). Excluding the GTA trilogy which just don't run well at all and get weird glitchy artifacts, my duallies sit around doing nothing with my config (even in Halo CE).

Heh it's a dual P3 1.4 Rig  Last i saw i only had a TNT2 Pro 64MB card in it. 4 scsi drives in raid 10 though ad i have a cable on the way for 4 more from the raid card it came with

Oh boy 1.4's. I wouldn't benefit from them over the 1266's in mine really but man would that be cool.

I got super super lucky with this. Had been looking for several years and one day walked into my local thrift store and this was sitting there. I just regret not getting the second empty case exactly like this one they had there. Brushed aluminum yes but super thick and EVERYTHING except the mother board has thumbscrews. It's amazing.

 

Planning to get a 4 slot 5 1/4" to 3 1/2" bay to put 4 9gb scsi drives i have sitting around in it.

Anyone remember this? ati radeon x850 pe vivo with a x850 xt pe bios thing is you could unlock it to the max but it would render your fan power source useless so you had to put another cooler and fan when changing the bios to the xt I did change the bios but it's not fully unlocked I could but I decided not to would have ruined the looks..

I'm sad because I HAD a really old AMD CPU but it fell down a sewer. It didn't work anyway  .

Wait a sec, didn't ATI make the Roller Coaster Tycoon games (at least 3)? or am I thinking wrong?

I think that was Hasbro Interactive.  Great games back in the day.

ATI published it, but it was pulled from steam after a lawsuit. Frontier Developments developed it. I may be wrong, but I think that's what happened.

[Cameron Goodwin]

Sorry for the crap quality, but that's the motherboard, with an EMPTY CPU socket. I took the pics in a hurry, I had to be somewhere. I'll reply to this with HOPEFULLY better quality.

No they didn't... IIRC it went Hasbro, Infogrames, and then Atari...Nowhere in that mix is ATI.
