Show off your old and retro computer parts

[The_Stig]

You mean, giving them to me, right???       

 

 

 

use them all for PhsyX

My friend has a Windows 98 computer with a golf sim that I know still works. Might give him a 9800GT to take full advantage of that 512mb of vram power.

I have 2 98 PCs going on 3.

I've found an old beauty. Back in the days I had to replace it with a FX 5500 to play Lego Star Wars...

 

 

The PCb says it's a Asus AGP-V7100 with 32 MB-SDRAM!

Couple of projects I'm still working on, both of these will become tiny little gaming PCs:

 

 

The Atari 2600 on the right is so old my mom doesn't even know what it is.

Atari <3  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:

I am making it into a G3258/750Ti build or a 7870K build. The problem is that if take it with me anywhere, no one (at least not as many people as the NES) has any idea what it is. I like the Atari much better though, the build quality is phenomonal, the plastic casing is like 1/2" thick, even at the thinnest parts. The casing alone like I have it weighs almost 5 pounds.

 

Edit: I still have the functioning internals of the NES, but the Atari was given to me by my soon to be brother in law (who works at Google which I think is pretty cool) to be fixed but he let me turn it into a PC.

I think its sad that people would butcher old consoles to put PCs into, that's what cases are for. Why not just get some games to play on them?

 

That's just me though. the tiny old man inside of me just came out. gonna put him back now.

[Noname8844]

I have a few Pentium 4's,an ATI GPU,512 mb of rdramm. Got all of that from my uncles old PC.

Any of you feelin me?

Cerca 2005-07?

dat colour matching tho

---gone---

 

 

 

Any of you feelin me?

Why would we be "fellin you"....man to man is so unjust!

 

dat colour matching tho

This was s time before tech guys have any sort of color coordination.

[Hans Christian | Teri]

Looks like when I started taking an interest in modding, 2002-2004 ish. Quite the horrible times when it comes to aesthetics.

ik. it was sarcasm.

I've got an AMD sempron 145 lying around, along with some GOLDEN ddr2 HyperX DDR2 gaming RAM and some other stuff...

[hk29]

got 8088 in the garage, and 386 in the closet lol, and an old tower , dont know whats in it , that my current tower sits on.

[biggiebigs123]

Here's a small collection of some of my floppy disks, a random IDE cable, and the Pentium 2 cartridge processor out of the first computer I ever got to use.

 

Yes the PII cartridge, i used to have one lying around but it got thrown away.  

[LukeS]

I got a few floppy disks laying around... An we HAD an old Apple G2 desktop... If anyone remembers those. I have 2 laptops from toshiba (like the first series they ever made)

Dude, me (and my grandpa) both have those exact same systems... We also got a PS1 and PS2... and the first gamecube (like zelda four swords series)

Ignoring the general stuff that has been posted here already (AM2 motherboards and CPU's) I still own a full set of GEiL Black Dragon RAM with the back then unmatched Micron D9 chips on them (they were the shizzle to have if you wanted to OC your RAM):

 

 

And I got a set of Thermalright HR-07 RAM coolers on them:

I need heatsinks like that for my good SDRAM-it hits 154MHz stable for 1 benchmark before overheating.

These ones can / could run stable between 1100 and 1200Mhz which is really good for 800Mhz rated ram, of course the timings would suffer tho and you needed a pretty high voltage.

That is a lot better than my HyperX and XMS sticks. However they don't actually need that much voltage to run at stock-I was able to downvolt them with no problems (DDR2 800 and 1066 respectively). And my DDR2 800 Team Xtreem Dark 2GB kit manages 1066 on stock voltages.

All this talk of overclocking RAM and my M2N-SLI Deluxe refuses to overclock my Athlon 7850 X2 BE.

Yeah downvolting them on stock speeds was easy.

I had the same board with a X2 6000+, getting a 100Mhz OC going was near impossible which was a shame but no surprise as the CPU wasn't known for it's OC potential.
