BigBadBiologists BigBadBench | #DOScember Can I build a 486 to play Descent smoothly? @BigBadBench | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
A little over a year ago (before I officially started my channel), I did a test stream to see what was inside this Compudyne computer:

A few weeks ago, I almost destroyed the motherboard trying to add a VLB slot to its motherboard:

Now it's time to turn this system into an awesome 486 gaming system using a Zeos Rattler PCI motherboard that I got at the VCF east swap meet:

Just in time for #doscember #doscember2022 !
