Feb 22, 2021 · A 300MHz Pentium II is an awesome machine for DOS gaming, in my experience. Now, it'll probably be too fast for speed-sensitive games from the 80s and early 90s, but it'll also offer ample performance for mid-late 90s titles.

As someone who had a K6-2 350, and a Pentium II 450, get the PII. The it will have way more L3 cache than the K6 and it will operate at 1/2 of CPU frequency, so one operation every second CPU clock cycle. Just be careful with AGP boards. I know not all AGP ports and boards fully compatible, and a mismatch can fry one of the other.

Nov 9, 2015 · I really liked the chunky look and feel of those old Pentium II, III slot in CPU's. I spent £1000 on a Pentium II 350mhz PC in 1998. However it would be fair to say that my obsolete Raspberry Pi B with a single core System-On-a-Chip CPU at 1ghz is …

Feb 6, 2023 · So I have been looking everywhere for a guide to setup a new image as Pentium II 4500 to emulate some classic gaming. All just show pcem running. I need step by step as new to this emu and want voodoo etc . Please help

Dec 1, 2021 · The drawback is of course performance. Depending on what software I'm running, I can emulate a Pentium 100MHz to a Pentium II 233MHz with my stock 7700k. If you want fast Windows 98 emulation you'll probably have better luck with Dosbox or QEmu.

Feb 9, 2021 · I have a Digital PC3500 Pentium II system which I'd like to use for some DOS and early Windows gaming. The bottom of the photo shows the NDX-style AGP slot. There are only a few used NDX-style AGP cards on eBay. Regular AGP cards won't work. Options: $10 ATI RAGE 109-51800-01 RAGE 128 AGP VIDEO CARD 16 Meg 6000711

Feb 22, 2021 · Celerons have an odd dichotomy: The Pentium II had 512 KB of level 2 cache, but it ran at half the CPU speed - so on a 300 MHz P2, the cache ran at 150 MHz. The Celerons had only 128 KB of level 2 cache, but they ran at full CPU speed (and were on the same physical chip/die as the CPU, so much lower latency, too.)

Feb 20, 2019 · If you are running Linux on an old x86 box (486, Pentium, Pentium II, III, etc) or even a more obscure machine (Sun, MIPS, etc), I would love to have your data as a point of comparison! First, create a 1MB file of random data: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/tmp/urandom bs=1M count=1 Then time how long it takes to pipe it through bzip2:

Feb 1, 2024 · AMD K6 vs Intel Pentium II I got two old 90s beige desktop computers, and after cleaning them up I found out they’re both computers from the brand “Shuttle” (never heard of them), and one motherboard has an AMD K6 266 MHz and the other has a …

The essay was intended to address the increasing number of "please add Pentium 3 and Pentium 4". Yes, a former developer forked 86Box to work on Pentium 3, but I was the one who told her to fork because initially, she insisted that we emulate the Athlon on 86Box and I kept saying no and she couldn't take that, then after forking, she decided to do the Pentium 3
