I laugh at your petty joystick. I've got a force feedback

Posted: **Wed Jan 15, 2003 7:12 am**

I've got a force feedback around here somewhere too, but for most games I prefer the non force feedback. SoI listed theone I really use.

ah thx, i can never remember that

ok, i have one compute, and old parts from the upgrade.

i used to have a p3 933 mhz, w/ a dvd drive, cd burner, good ati graphics card, 19 inch screen, etc... but then, i went to Hong Kong.

i got a new motherboard, 1.8 GHz processor, 512 megs of ram, and a new hard disk drive (60gigs). i went home, installed all the parts, and then realised that i had forgotten the graphics card.

oh well, it's pretty good. i'm gona set up a new computer from all of the old parts just around the corner from the current one, network them, and play quake with my dad all day long...

Is that an honest-to-dog real full 50mhz chip or a DX2 chip? If the real mccoy, hat's off. Fastest machine of the old school!! But AMD's DX-40 gave you a good run for the money.

a 486 DX 50 non dx/2 is very rare.. and would make the VLB bus run at 50 mhz speeding up any hd and video card on the bus considerably (assuming they would even run that high, alot dont)

I had a cyrix 486-dx40 and it was the last processor I owned that didnt need a fan on the heatsink. Do you guys remember back when there were no fans inside your computer (except the silent PS fan)? My XP athlon heatsink/fan can be heard very clearly even with the tv running.

Ol' 4ies has only ISA buses.
