Yes what I have here is a very rare Super Socket 7 Motherboard with the ALi Aladdin V chip-set and 1MB of onboard Cache!!

This video is a complete review of this motherboard, including an in-depth optimization guide!
Some o the tips also apply to other SS7 and ALi motherboards in general.

Finally we have a 600Mhz showdown of K6-2, K6-2+ and K6-3+ processors.
In total 16 different configurations were measured in 12 benchmarks!!

There are VGA cards that can be faster that the FX5900XT for SS7 in some benchmarks / games. This is not the topic of this video, I will probably cover this at an other time.

Corrections on the V_I/O, Bus stability topic.
Here I run my tests at the 3.5V setting.
V_I/O plays a role in Bus stability.
Also at higher bus rates, the 1MB M/B had better stability.

I hope you enjoyed this... please like, comment, share and subscribe for more!

Nvidia modded 53.04 driver by me... (only manual install)
Full support for FX cards. Faster than 56.64 and 100% stable with SS7 systems.

With ALi motherboards it is important to install the AGP Driver.
Sometimes when you install the VGA driver after that, some of the AGP drivers files are replaced.
This causes the monitor to go black every few seconds and the system is unstable.
The solution is to reinstall the AGP driver. Ver 1.9 is what I used.
