+Clesarie The only thing that would make it better is if it had today's level of cable management options, better front I/O (even so, that can be fixed with 3.5" external brackets) and a CPU cutout on the back of the MoBo tray for easy aftermarket cooling installation. At that point, it'd blow any case on the market today out of the water.

Six years later and this build is still awesome! It's timeless. I own two retro builds now - the first has Voodoo2 SLI and a 1GHz Pentium III (this is still my favorite), and a second with the infamous Voodoo5 5500 and a 1.4GHz Pentium III Tualatin chip. Neither one has this fancy of a case though. Videos like this got me interested.

[@MrMoogle]

That was a truly masterful build! 16-year-old me would have LOVED that system. I was running an Athlon K7 back in those days. I remember so many of those components and the dreaded ribbon cable management. Thanks for the nostalgia!

[@SuperSpetterpoep]

You should power the 3DFX on it's own and not shared with any harddrives. Harddrives in the past where sensitive for voltage fluctuations. Esp. when going into 3D mode the AGP Card was able to take a peak load from that same line, causing a slight voltage drop. Harddrive's can go bad with such a setup. Props on the retro-build. However a AMD Athlon was proberly the better and faster CPU for this setup.

+victorbart 3 days and some more salvaged parts later, I did just that. Not nearly as fancy as this build, but for $0, it isn't too shabby. Pentium III 866 MHz, 512 MB RAM, 2 20 GB HDDs, a Soundblaster Live Value (made in 2000), and the Voodoo 5, all for a grand total of nothing but 2 days of leaning over a low table working on it. I just need an era-appropriate case, monitor, CD-RW drive, and mouse pad, alongside a copy of Quake III and UT1999.

[@mtunayucer]

[@matasa7463]

It's interesting to see that despite how much has changed, some things still remained the same simply because of how things used to be. We don't even take off most of our rear PCI-e covers today, but back then nearly every slot was used! Moreover, the ATX layout with the rear I/O, CPU in the middle top, and RAM to the side... nothing really changed the conventions even if tech improved significantly. What an incredible treat! This case is still beautiful even by 2021 standards, and the removable motherboard tray is an amazing feature that i wish was more commonplace! I really hope Cooler Master tries to remake a case in this style, with modern conventions like front mesh, tempered glass panels, PSU shroud, and so on, but retains the nice silvery metal look and the removable motherboard tray...

[@MJ-uk6lu]

I managed once to fill almost every slot in ATX case. I put graphics card (2 slots), Xonar DG, WiFi card, PCI-E slot cooler, USB 3.0 controller. But yeah, ATX form factor is pretty much overkill today. Most people would be totally fine with mATX and good part of us, even with mITX. What imo killed ATX was the death of SLI and Crossfire. That was the main reason why enthusiasts needed ATX boards at all.

[@glasshammer291]

Geforce3 came out in 2000 and smashed the Voodoo5. Also, the AMD Thunderbird 1000Mhz smashed the Intel variant that year as well.

[@Novusod]

+George Babbitt In benchmarks the Geforce3 was better than the Voodoo5. However, many games at the time were optimized for the 3dfx instructions so the Voodoo5 card would run better than the Geforce3 in everyday gaming.

[@rcarkk]

GeForce 3 was launched in early 2001. The contemporary card to the Voodoo 5 5500 was the GeForce 2 GTS which was launched a few months earlier than V5. The GeForce 2 GTS was faster than Voodoo 5 5500, so no need for GeForce 3.

[@victorbart]

Offcourse! :D I played HL1 so much. But I also wanted to try the other titles.

[@Meton12765]

***** I fail to see your point. Yes, some of these components cost premium in this kind of condition, on the other hand most can be found discarded in a dumpster or laying around in some hoarders attic. In fact I ditched a whole box of stuff from this era, all in good nick, just a few months ago. (yes into SER garbage) Many of the games and applications from this era no longer working on modern computers and emulators are a poor substitute lacking appropriate emulation for 3D acceleration and most of the time sound hardware. They use (poor) software synthesis to achieve backwards compatibility. Indeed now that I'm no longer a teenager and actually have serious disposable income I don't mind building rigs like this. They are a bit like vintage cars. Although my personal preference is for old 64bit RISC Workstations I can see the appeal in this type of a PC. They are interesting pieces from the history of computing. In this case, home computing.

How could you? This begs for a CRT monitor, not an early LCD, which were total garbage. The games were designed on and for a CRT; the content was made for a ~2.2 gamma and it's going to look washed out and wrong on an LCD. The content was made for a variety of 4:3 resolutions and the CRT can handle them all natively without resorting to bad scaling (a 1280x1024 LCD can only ever display 1280x1024; if the resolution is e.g. 800x600, it will be stretched and scaled up to 1280x1024 giving a blurry mess). The CRT had excellent black levels, higher refresh rate, very low persistence and no display latency. It is only in the last couple of years that LCDs have managed to catch up, and then only for modern games not designed with CRTs in mind.

+soylentgreenb I got 2 machines like this running and they are both with CRT's right now :)

I built pc's for a living from mid- until late 90's , this brings back some memories! Great clean build :)

[@LittleSaint425]

I never seen a year 2000 gaming pc before. I'm very amaze by the build and specs. I always been a consoles gaming person. But I really can appreciates and admire pc since they are the one they made every technology possible.

[@BPeach11770]

Man.. This really brings back memories from waaay back.. Believe it or not , I still have my Voodoo 5.. Awesome build..

[@HappySlappyFace]

wow your lucky

[@theBraxil]

I love that the voodoo runs of a single molex, I don't know why but I find that hilarious.

[@cmstudios11]

I LOVE the idea of a sliding motherboard tray!

[@cee128d]

Brings back memories. I'm still using a couple of those Promise IDE cards in builds and a 12/10/32 Plextor CDR/W for burning audio CDs.

[@vicentcarro]

Wow! almost as same as my rig back then 2001~2004, but 2018 I replace all of the other parts new except ATC-201 !!! What a great investment I have made!

[@davidarmstrong7114]

This was my dream Hog from back in the day. I was misty eyed watching you put it together especially your choice in parts. I sent the link to my older brother and we where shouting at each other over the phone while watching this about how F*CKING awesome it was. Thanks much for making your childhood dream come true and sharing it with us, as we had the same dream.

[@StAlchemyst]

Ahhhhhh.....memories. I remember you'd have to have some fat stack back in the day to be able to shove all that hardware in one case. The cool thing about it is that motherboard layout hasnt changed hardly at all in 16 years! Acouple different ports, no ribbon IDE's, and your 20 pin power connection in the middle is now a 24 pin on the right side and that's about it!

[@ebbiesoup1862]

Now we have Serial IDE (SATA)

[@arranmc182]

Its amazing to see a old gaming system set up as not a lot of people had the money then to have any where near top specs so they missed out on some amazing games

[@ChannelAsh100]

This video brought so many flashbacks to the Pentium 3 times !

[@vamtheanomaly]

Props for building a retro rig. I can see as much as this brings back memories, im SO glad this era of computing is over! I used to hate trying to configure hard drive jumpers for master and slave, the cd rom, the frikken windows 98 networking and getting drivers for everything...uggggggh!

[@mundodascpus7435]

Your video is fantastic. Congratulations for remmember this era.

[@Fsejr]

Those times....thank you for your video. Have a nice day

[@victorbart]

Nicolai Truelsegaard Olsen Thanks :)

[@cs512tr]

3Dfx will ALWAYS have a special place in my world

[@GilletteGaming]

I love everything about this. Bravo! The cable management is pristine!

[@kizabg1987]

I love the little fan in the CD burner. And today we're not even using disk readers. Unreal how things change

[@cliolord]

Lovely build, UT99! It's my era of gaming and similar build that I wished for in 2000 when upgrading from a Duron 800/Voodoo 3 1000 8mb! Very nice!
