This has been my main retro project for quite some time. The goal has been to have a as compatible system as possible. While I know that the current GPU at the time of writing this (Rage 128gl), does have some bugs, especially in DOS games; it is currently the strongest 3d GPU I own and it has adequate DOS compatibility for the most part. But I do intend to upgrade to a ASUS V8200 T2 or a geforce 256 for better 3d processing power as well as better DOS compatibility. The Sound Blaster AWE 32 is a fantastic card, that I have never had any drivers issues with. It provides clear sound in all the games I have tried. It lack EAX sound, but I feel like the midi quality far outperforms the negative from that- 15.03.2026

 Drivers I use for the machine:
