[@JazzEdan]

Edmundo studios it's the advent of Core. After the flop that was Pentium 4 and D, and the killings AMD made with Athlon64, intel had to go back to the drawing board and came up with Core Duo. It was a big turnaround in computer technology (good in a way I guess, because we wouldn't know how AMD might change the course of history if intel didn't cheat their way to success). After core, came Sandy Bridge, and with that and similar flop from AMD that was Bulldozer, no such leap was ever made again for years. Honestly, Core 2 Duo is good enough even in 2017 if you don't play modern game or watch high resolution videos.

[@Edmundostudios]

JazzEdan Yeah I actually refurbished a core 2 duo system with an SSD for an office computer. It's really fast still for everyday stuff like ms office and web browsing. Not much slower than my i5 for that.

[@sebastian19745]

The scaling issue (640x480 box in the middle of the screen) can be fixed by a option in BIOS, that way the 640x480 get stretched the full screen. The Win98 CD is bootable (at leastWin98SE, that you will want to install) so there is no need to have a boot floppy. Also, PIII era computers decided to be aware of CD as a bootable device. Actually I have a similar looking PII that is aware of CD booting. Win9x is quite snappy and useful for most of the tasks if one keep in mind the era when that OS belongs. I use my Win95 P200 for most of office tasks (word, excel on office97), retro gaming, listening CDs and mp3s. No modern web browsing, no mp4/mkv movies (at most some old divx), no DVDs, no streaming. Actually, I only use my main computer to watch youtube and to search and download old software...

[@DxDeksor]

In the late 90's and early 2000's, celerons weren't that bad ! Especially when you consider for example the 1998 celeron 300A which could be easily be overclocked up to 450MHz and outperform the fastest consumer cpu of that year which was the pentium II 450MHz while costing you only one tenth of the price of the pentium II ! Coppermine celerons can't outperform coppermine pentium III even when they are overclocked to the speed of a pentium III but they're really not that bad !

[@armeniancrusader301]

Kuntal ghosh 700mhz is for today very slow and intel Celeron and today say I don't want 700mhz it's to slow I want intel core i7 3.20ghz

[@KuntalGhosh]

WitherSkeletonHD und Mikaelcraftertv nope ! I use ryzen 7 1700 and gtx1080!

[@GGigabiteM]

>it maintained alot of the power and was generally considered by many to be worth a $700 over the Pentium III The Celeron was actually quite a bit slower than the Pentium III, like 10-20% slower depending on the clock speed and application. The 66 MHz bus speed which Intel used on Celerons up to 766 MHz was increasingly a bottleneck on the faster parts and offered diminishing returns in performance. The halved cache also contributed to slower performance, especially in applications that made heavy use of it. Another little known change is that Intel added a wait state to the L2 cache, further impacting its performance. > which only really offered speed step as an advantage :D There was never a Pentium III part that supported Speed Step. That technology didn't come about until the Pentium 4-M, Mobile Pentium 4 and Pentium M.

I still have one with a 900Mhz PIII I got in High School around 2000-2001. I upgraded it with 512Mb PC-133 ram, replaced it's internal wifi card with a 802.11G one and upped it to Win2K. I even still use it form time to time as a stepping stone link between my modern days Win7\10 computers and my "vintage" hardware (Wins98 and below) as win2k is decent at "talking" to a wide range of other windows systems

Ita crazy to see how technology is getting better and better over the time.

The humor in these budget build channels are cheap but classy ;) bit like the builds. thumbs up

I noticed that the display was artifacting while playing Quake III as well. That's quite a bit strange.

I didn't expect to find the Sega GT 2002 music in this video.

No testing of DOS games with the Yamaha YMF752 drivers installed? This maybe an ideal laptop for DOS and Win9X gaming, other than buying a newer Win9X laptop and using an expensive PCMCIA soundcard like the Roland SCP-55

I love RA2! I still play it today every now and then. C&C Generals as well!

Still have my Toshiba satellite of a similar model. Kept it even though I wasn't allowed to keep my large Compaq taking up space, I feel it will one day fit the needs to set up retro 90s-early 2000 gaming :) good times

My father used to own this laptop back in the 00s. It was running on a Pentium III 750Mhz as I recalled.

[@petertoxin5752]

wooow that reminds me of my IBM 770E which was given to me at my job years later i was allowed to keep it...they paid $5k for that IBM and then i added a dvd because believe it or not it didnt come with one for 5K..imagine that...BTW i still have it and i fired it up about 2 yrs ago and it worked fine with the upgraded Win 2000 instead of Win95...good video man

This was magical back in ye day

[@12kempa34]

Liked because Red alert 2 benchmark, such a nostalgic game!

[@cheezmunsta4679]

I have a modern-ish Toshiba satellite (2011 model) and for the longest time I would use it for gaming on the go, it died on me around a year ago and I haven’t got round to investigating the issue but it would munch through most games around 30 fps with ok graphics settings

[@cliffshockley4406]

Ack! That poor hard drive when you flipped up the notebook while still powered on!

Been watching your channel for a while and finally found this video. I just recently bought one as this was My first computer sometime around 2006 and I’ve been looking for information all over and just stumbled across this. Thanks for making the video. I have the 900mhz pentium 3 model myself, let me know if there is any information you want about my model.
