These machines never used to have 128megs of ram, XP or a PCI Voodoo3 so lets see how bringing one into the future works out:
A tiny testament to how efficient an operating system XP is,
how optimized and light some apps & game engines used to be,
just how groundbreaking that first-gen Pentium really was,
and why 3DFX Voodoo-cards (with proper drivers, patches and tweaks) were true accelerators ????
(Intel’s Pentium Overdrive CPUs were released in 1995 as an alternate upgrade path for people stuck on older Socket 3/4/5-based platforms and mostly 486s. Anyone could just swap out the chip itself that way, but would give up some performance due to having older memory and mainboards/chipsets. It however arrived over a year late while many had lost patience or interest, and moved on.)
Kudos to 86box for its performance as well!
