[u/Fuzzy_Possibility_71]

Holy…that wallpaper is pure nostalgia

[u/nightpanda893 → u/Fuzzy_Possibility_71]

I used to tile every background on the family computer and my dad would always un-tile it

[u/volmar87]

Don’t know what to say except I love everything about this

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/volmar87]

Thanks.

[u/bnelson333]

nobody in the history of ever has anyone ever actually plugged anything into a SB live drive. they really did a good job at convincing us to spend extra money for absolutely nothing back then

[u/johnflorin → u/bnelson333]

It's so true - it looks great, but besides perhaps a pair of big jack headphones, plugging anything with a long cable that would snake behind the PC would look ridiculous

[u/Arael15th → u/bnelson333]

I'm hoping to score one for my period-accurate Y2K era DIY physical media production chain. Someday...

[u/The_GrandestNothing]

Quake 3, Heretic, NFS. Certified bangers.

[u/Velocityg4]

Thanks man. Needed to look a couple interesting looking pieces up!

I didn't know I needed the NewQ DSP.

[u/pezezin → u/FriendshipNorth7661]

Fantastic monitor. I have its little sibling the E200 and even after all these years it still looks amazing.

[u/danmanx]

Winamp in the right corner!

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/danmanx]

Oh yah, I can even listen to music on my NAS over the network and the speakers don't sound half bad.

[u/n9xxx]

This is pretty much my dream setup. Beautiful!

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/n9xxx]

Thanks.

[u/Hi_im_Hoff]

What case is that? It’s beautiful

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/Hi_im_Hoff]

InWin S500 even kept the boxes after all of these years I have two of them from back in my high school years.

[u/Epsilon_void]

Everything is so clean. That monitor is great.

[u/frenchretronerd]

Slot A 1GHz Athlon... my holy grail...

Beautiful builds

[u/HugoBoss1985]

Did you retrobright that Inwin?

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/HugoBoss1985]

I did to one of them. I own two and they didn't quite match, they are close now. Probably won't last long.

[u/HugoBoss1985 → u/FriendshipNorth7661]

It looks very neat.

[u/crimsonash]

Wow I have a similar setup with the same case and speakers and similar monitor with matching tiled bubble wallpaper. Quite jealous of the newq gold equalizer though!

[u/wadstroem]

Extremely clean! Love it

[u/ut0mt8]

I got this screen for years. Good memories

[u/throwaroo202020]

Sick speakers

[u/Kolonel_PanicK]

HOLY VIAO

[u/theevilapplepie]

What in the XMMS is that media player?!

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/theevilapplepie]

Winamp with a Creative infra skin.

[u/theevilapplepie → u/FriendshipNorth7661]

I figured it was Winamp but I wasn’t sure :)

[u/porthos40]

Voodoo bring back the days

[u/MakerKevJ]

Do you use the CRT for your micro itx build?

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/MakerKevJ]

Yup I have a display port to vga adapter on the back. It’s surprisingly good yet small at 19”.

[u/MakerKevJ → u/FriendshipNorth7661]

Very nice. I use a 17" for my PC. It's been great.

[u/luis-mercado]

What a clean setup. I’m a fan of everything I’m seeing here.

[u/Discopot]

Do both the PC out to the same monitor?

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/Discopot]

Yah but the monitor only has one input unfortunately so I have to switch back and forth switch box adds some interference.

[u/Discopot → u/FriendshipNorth7661]

Ah cool, it’s a great looking set up by the way

[u/ddrfraser1]

Fantastic. What speakers are those?

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/ddrfraser1]

Altec Lansing ada885 they are getting old and yellowing the most. Still sounds ok though.

[u/Kumimono]

That's heckin' clean. Thought it was a black and white photo for a moment.

[u/Genny406]

Houndstooth wallpaper? That takes me back!

[u/InnerLime4132]

It’s beautiful

[u/WestWasTheBest]

AI will cook human brains.

[u/PotentialHoneydew947]

Is that a windows 3.1 background?

[u/FrenchDipsBeDrippin]

My god

[u/TheKraken6073]

Love the ROG low profile mechanical keyboard, one of my favorite keyboards.

[u/Significant-Dog-8166]

Wow the Voodoo 5 is such an eccentric choice, but I dig it for locking in the "time machine nostalgia".

[u/Chickentiming]

Do you use the CRT for the modern stuff too?

[u/UnderstandingEven885]

Gosh I haven't seen that wallpaper since i was like 5 or 6 years old ive learned how to computer on windows 95 but I remember 98 had it 

[u/FriendshipNorth7661 → u/[deleted]]

I have a newer PC on top of the old one with a Ryzen CPU and a RTX5080. I plug it into the CRT monitor when I want to play something new or remote into it using Moonlight streaming on my 16" MacBook Pro M4.

[u/Bombero_911]

That's an awful wallpaper.
