My Daily Use 486 Build - Part 1

Welcome to my adventures building a 486 for my daily gaming use! As a retro PC hardware enthusiast, I have a habit of tearing my systems apart and swapping parts around all the time. This year, I have made a commitment to put together a system that'll stay assembled at all times for my day to day gaming use. In part 1, I take a close look at all of the parts for this build. Stay tuned for the assembly, benchmarking and some gaming in the next part! ** My Blog: https://vswitchzero.com/ Follow me on X/Twitter: https://x.com/vswitchzero Mastodon: https://bitbang.social/@vswitchzero If you enjoy my channel, please consider supporting me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/vswitchzero ** 00:00 Introduction 02:47 The ECS UM4981 Motherboard 08:01 486 CPU Options 11:30 Memory Options 12:17 VESA Local Bus VGA Cards 15:00 Compact Flash Storage 16:08 Pro Audio Spectrum 16 and MIDI 27:02 Plextor Caddy-Load CD-ROM 28:52 Intel Pro10 Network Card 29:28 AT Case and Power Supply 31:10 Conclusion
