Preparing my Socket 2 DX2-66 build, setting the LED display to 66 MHz. Whenever I get a new retro PC case, I take it apart, wash it, check the PSU, clean everything, and restore what I can. I don't want to erase its battle scars. I want it to look old, but well cared for.

Well, I guess my win wasn't...🤦
Ran into issues with Win3x. Could only start with win /s otherwise BSOD or crash
And yes, this is the on-board RAM. I removed the 4MB stick prior to running this test.
Time to restest traces...

Extreme Pinball (1995) - one of the best DOS pinball games. Gravis Ultrasound PnP in action on a Pentium MMX 233 (1997). Few games really took advantage of the GUS hardware mixing, onboard RAM and interpolation. Pinball games were among the exceptions.

Cyrix 6x86 - good or bad? In early 1996, its superior integer performance justified premium pricing over Pentiums at the same clock speed. The weak FPU barely mattered. Then Quake arrived, changed the rules, and shattered Cyrix's dreams. That's what history remembers.
