Hi everyone,

I’m Niels from the Netherlands, and I’ve recently started diving deeper into the world of retro PC hardware. My goal is to rebuild a few classic setups that cover the eras I loved (or missed out on the first time around). I am a father, teacher and gamer in no particular order.

At the moment I’m focusing on three main projects:

A 486DX system.(Nearly complete, could use an AWE64 ISA)(Tulip Vison Line DT50i with ET6000)

A Pentium III build(Should be pretty complete (900Mhz Coppermine, Geforce2 GTS)

An Athlon XP rig(Still needs some work, got a Barton 2800+ on a Soltek Nforce2 Ultra, 9800 Pro purchase is pending)

Eventually I want to fill in in between with a Pentium and Pentium II build.


Along the way, I’m on the lookout for some specific parts: mainly to get those newer builds up and running and perhaps some collectible masterpieces (Voodoo2 SLI comes to mind)

Looking forward to trading, learning, and chatting with you all!

Cheers,
Niels
