@Backfire. Hey I also have the original Radeon 64ddr gpu. I still have the full retail package. I also have a full retailed boxed Rage Fury Pro and a Radeon 9500 Pro. I am going to resurrect my kt7a over the weekend. I too had it @ 2200 mhz. It is running a geforce fx5700 and 1.5 gb of mem. Just need to decide with sound board to put in it. I have a sb live, sb audigy , audigy 2, audigy 2 zs and a aureal sq2500 to choose from. And it will be an xp machine.

An Audigy or Audigy 2 is always a good choice. I'd take the Audigy, the Audigy 2 may be a bit to "young".
Yesterday I've made a real hit at ebay > http://www.ebay.de/itm/6-St-Grafikkarten-und-1-St-TV-Karte-/191119826514?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&nma=true&si=nVLHgZYrS%2BsWpTMq%2Fhodp4nStX8%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
A Rage Fury MAXX for 9.50Euros :rockout:.
ARGHbllll...if i did knew .... oh wait the seller doesn't accept Paypal and not sending outside Germany ...

ok folks .... the HDAMA-I and the E6700 are almost here .... i can feel it ...

also i have a Audigy 2 at home ... but the audio quality is beyond crappy ... but its not Creative's fault .... : Corroded jack plug .... i didn't took the "gold" one :roll:

and nope its not too young i bought it for the Athlon XP rig originally so waaayyy enough old (for a 12yrs old chip :D ) ... or i could take out a Hercule Gamesurround Fortissimo II if i find her ... and more importantly the cable that goes with... that was my 1st real 5.1 audio card tho at the time i couldn't afford a 5.1 speaker set so i ended using two 2.0 speaker set xD i got the Hercule in 2001 (2years after mounting the A-XP rig and when i got feed up of the AC97 :roll:) and the Audigy 2 in 2003 when the price of it was a bit cheaper than at launch in 2002

tho i had the blue PCB one but the box was that one, i should have kept the box and the cable :D but i am pretty sure i still have the card somewhere.

Picked this stuff up from a guy in San Francisco.

Shuttle HOT-409 motherboard:


5.25" 360KB Floppy:


A Joystick for something, I was told Apple II.


DTC Y2K BIOS Card:


3 Adaptec AHA-1542CF SCSI cards:


and a Performa 6400/180 with a 300 MHz G3 Upgrade.






Wrapped in a plastic bag in case it leaks before I get it externally mounted. Last thing I want is another ruined motherboard from batteries.

Sealed retail boxed Intel SBT2. Didn't consider this at first, but the front panel connectors are proprietary. There's also some kind of proprietary 10-pin connector, I believe it's required if using a redundant power supply. No idea if it's actually required to boot the board or not. Apparently the board is intended to be used with the Intel SC5000 pedestal case, but I got other plans for it.

Possible specs:
Dual 1Ghz P3 Xeon SL4HF
4GB PC133 ECC
3DFX Voodoo5 5500 PCI
Sound Blaster Audigy
Dual 36GB Quantum SCSI drives









Sealed Sapphire Radeon X1950 Pro AGP





ASUS PC-DL

Came with a pair of 2.8Ghz Xeons, but I picked up a pair of 3.2Ghz on the cheap, the best this board will officially run. Unfortunately this board only officially supports 533Mhz FSB, but I can probably OC it a bit.

Software Windows 7 Home Premium x64
Sealed retail boxed Intel SBT2. Didn't consider this at first, but the front panel connectors are proprietary. There's also some kind of proprietary 10-pin connector, I believe it's required if using a redundant power supply. No idea if it's actually required to boot the board or not. Apparently the board is intended to be used with the Intel SC5000 pedestal case, but I got other plans for it.

I have an Intel SRSH4 server that looks to have a very similar board layout and the 10-pin connector. When I get home I can tell you what it does on mine. Being a Pentium 4 Xeon Quad-processor system it doesn't see a lot of use as it draws more power than an Athlon X2 system while being slower.

I am going to put another Athlon xp rig together here soon. This one I am going to stray away from the normal. LOL The Board is an Epox Krai pro with the Via Kt880 chipset.

SBT2 specification manual indicates those proprietary front panel connectors are for LEDs and indicators apparently. Power and reset switches have their own separate headers which will accept standard power/reset switch connections. Lol, I hope this board boots without the 10-pin.

I still have HD4850. Still great, after... 6 years! :toast:

By the way, I'm thinking about changing case in my primary PC. How about It guys? :D (Link directly to offer in my country):
http://tablica.pl/oferta/obudowa-big-tower-chieftec-dragon-da-01b-d-CID99-ID3oevF.html

I wanted this, but seller don't sending It, only personal receive. Unfortunately, Wroclaw is too far from my city. Maybe Backfire will take it (German border). If I only had a car... :rolleyes:

Chieftec Dragon cases are my favorite old school case
