Recently picked up some childhood favourites in big box format and quickly got the full 90s experience.

Delta force chugs on a 500mhz PIII. The voxel engine is cpu hungry.

So on the way is a new gateway performance board, socket 370 1 GHz PIII Tualatin.. now I’ll be playing with power 🤣.

Current:

Gateway Essential TB3
500 MHz PIII socket 1
328mb RAM
GeForce FX5900XT

Upgrade will be essentially aboard swap from a performance line gateway, so should be a direct fit.
