Absolutely! I should say it was a real treat, even if it wasn't perfect. That old machine sparked my interest in building and gathering.

I had my very first PC with a graphics card that had just 1MB of VRAM. When I tried to play Tomb Raider, it felt more like a slow slideshow. The CPU was apparently an AMD Athlon.

Thanks for the quick response! That’s a really old PC—super cool! I believe the only working one here is a Socket A model. I’m hoping to get into even older systems, and I’d love to try a 486 someday. My brother and I are building a fun collection of vintage tech too, which is so enjoyable.
