At some point I'm going to be putting together a retro gaming PC. Ideally Id like to build it in a koolance PC1-c case with the water cooled 230w PSU, but odds are I will not be able to find that.
Anyway I do have alot of water cooling parts from koolance from 2003 and back. A handful of CPU blocks, a chip-set block and GPU block. And even the deathtrap aluminum rads.
I have a ABIT KG7-RAID, ram, 2 top ends hdd's from the time, sound card, CPU, (1600+ if I recall) But no GPU. if I had two GPU blocks I get a voodoo5500 volt mod it and OC the snot out of it. But as cool as the voodoo5500 is it was not the best card for the time and behind the rest of the cards when new. So if you were building such a system with parts from 2001 ish and back what would you get?
Keep in mind the GPU blocks I have a cross drill block that can only handle 20W
I was thinking GeForce 3 or a ATI 8500, But those set right above the 20w the block can take.
