The Tiniest Pentium Gaming PC

for all the time I've been playing around with old computers there's one generation of hardware I've never really touched original socket 7-10 tiems and you know what today I think it's time I finally fixed that and I actually have the perfect system in mind for that and it's actually a prebuilt computer that I want to start out with the only problem is that it's a POS [Music] yes a point-of-sale computer and while this doesn't seem like the ideal starting point for a vintage computer build trust me when I say by the time I'm done with this thing it's going to be the ultimate mid to late 90s fragging monster through a frustrating series of events I have acquired two of these in very different varieties the right one is the one we will actually be building up today in the left one is one that I acquired as part of a troubleshooting process now both of these computers are actually made by the same parent company that I believe is called Safari it's hard to tell because they're actually om systems integrators systems the left one is released by Concorde and the right one is by IC RDA which is international cash registers distribution Association I don't know but they are seriously point-of-sale computers they're not meant to be anything fancy and they're probably not even meant to end up in your home now both of these systems have the same model number PDA 2000 and are called a data book computer with the FCC ID EU and Safari plus all of that information is almost useless because it's so generic but thankfully with the Safari part of the FCC ID I was actually able to find PDFs for how to configure this system which is good because it wasn't set up correctly when I got it which is why I've never really done anything with this computer despite getting it almost 15 years ago now I was given this by a family member probably five years after it was retired and it just never worked out for me but since I was able to find that manual and now have a better understanding of how all these old systems work I was able to get it going and not only does it work it works incredibly well but there's one thing I haven't really made clear about this system most mid to late 90s computers are fairly large and for good reason because you need to have room to put in all the components and if you're like me you relish the giant cases it just can't get enough of them but this computer isn't like that and while most systems of this era would have been larger than something like a Playstation this one isn't at least in all dimensions yes this is the smallest Pentium system I have ever seen and it is awesome now let's start to get into why this thing so cool as I disassembled it here most new computers that are made small are dumb so using laptop parts because the chipsets are smaller and produce less heat the components are a little bit less costly and overall they're all just a lot smaller and easier to work with especially when you need to integrate everything onto a single board but that wasn't really an option around this time so this system aside from the CD Drive and well sort of this power supply uses all standard sized desktop components that is a full size socket 7 suck it although it is kind of weird and we'll take a look at that but everything else in here is full size including the hard drive that this originally came with this system is designed to use a full size three and a half inch ide hard drive it's just that well the BIOS here kind of sucks and the biggest size hard drive you can use in it is 40 gigs that wasn't a problem for this original Drive that I believe is only three gigabytes but when I have gone to upgrade this that's caused me quite a number of problems now to get to where the hard drive goes we have to continue on with the disassembly because in order to do almost anything with this computer you have to take out every single component in that whole process has made testing and troubleshooting this system a complete nightmare matter of fact I've been working off and on on this computer for I think over a year now and it has just been the most frustrating and difficult process because this motherboard is specific to this system and so are some of the cables so this cable I actually thought had failed multiple times but it turned out the original CD drive that was in this was actually bad so that drive is new and that's why it doesn't match finally now we have the motherboard in all of its glory now this is a very unusual motherboard first of all it covers the entire bottom of the case and it has a plastic film over it so that it can't short against the totally metal shield that goes over this but it it's well it's bigger than you might think cuz here is a more typical socket 7 motherboard and if I turn this one around and hold the other board up against it you'll see the small case board is actually just a little bit bigger in all directions which is really weird considering this one has a full complement of all of the slots that you would need and I think maybe even two expansion slots which is the only way that you can plug any cards into this one is with a riser over here and this one only has two Ram slots which I believe this originally came configured with this 32 megabytes stick but the board maximum is 128 so I've fed it with two 64 Meg's sticks but this one has 4 memory slots and it has 2 full sized IDE connectors and a floppy which this does also have but it only has one normal IDE the other one is for that custom CD drive connector but again this one still has a lot more on it now these are both boards from the time when the super i/o chips like this um C one would be integrated on board so before you would need something like this card in say a 386 build that would give you IDE floppy and all that stuff and it would be really handy to have that on one card but they started integrating those types of things into the boards really fast but there is one huge difference between these two boards this board lacks a video which you would need to add here now what's really cool this is an Elsa victory 3d X and this uses an s3 verge DX chipset this is a 2 megabyte card optionally upgradable to 4 megabytes here but this is actually the exact same chipset that's included as onboard graphics in this system for some reason this point-of-sale cash register computer has a 3d capable graphics card integrated in I think 1998 on here that's pretty weird but gives us some really great options well the Virg DX does do 3d and has 4 megabytes of video memory it's really better suited to 2d graphics and because of that it pairs great with a voodoo - yes I'm going to be putting a voodoo 2 inside of this computer because with that it can handle some pretty incredible games now in order to feed that voodoo 2 I am going to have to outfit it with a processor that can really live up to the task and a Pentium 2 33 MMX should fit the bill now what's really strange about this board and chip is that that was actually what was in it when I got it that exact chip this tiny little computer it came with the most powerful Pentium one ever released well at least for desktop class systems I don't know why it was in such a weird little tiny meager computer but it was but the problem was it was set incorrectly these jumpers decide what the voltage is for the processor and the voltage is actually listed on the bottom of the chip around this area and it was set to under voltage which was causing this processor to sometimes report as a Pentium 166 that is what made it so unstable and it took a lot of head-scratching to finally figure that out because why would a computer come with a processor and not be properly configured with it Plus this is again my first time using socket 7 stuff so I just didn't know to check for things like that next is the issue that gave me the most trouble out of anything else in this build and that has to do with how you put the CPU in now I did actually have to take the CPU out and I was able to figure out how this socket works but I didn't fully appreciate it when I first had to deal with it now a normal socket seven suck it you drop the processor in it falls into the pins when you have it oriented correctly pop it in and drop the latch and now you're done but there's no latch on this one matter of fact there's no real strong indication in any way of how you're supposed to secure that processor now it's only because I was able to find the manual that I have any idea how this socket works because this is just mind-boggling ly stupid you have to put a flat bladed screwdriver into a little groove here and press against the socket and the CPU to tighten it that is how you secure it but it gets even worse than that because generally I found that doesn't work well enough and you have to get in here and twist against the plastic until this side becomes totally flush and it usually takes a ridiculous amount of force and I'm actually gonna have to get my extra force applicator here because this is just stupidly tight in here there we go that's what it takes to install the chip in this it's it's just dumb it had turned out the last time I'd installed this processor I didn't fully tighten it down and it was a little loose making the system behave erratically and then finally it came fully loose in the system just stopped booting that's why I bought the second one because I thought I just had broken the motherboard somehow throughout all of the shenanigans I've had to go through to get this thing running so that's why I have two of these now but now that I know how it works after having accidentally done the same thing to the second board but realizing my mistake I can get this one working perfectly fine which is good because the other ones in really bad shape it's all rusty everywhere now the next problem is thankfully one that is solved by the case manufacturer because this would not have been easy to handle on your own opinion like this needs an actual active heatsink and this is where this gets tricky in this case because if you put just a standard socket seven heat sink in there you've now blocked all of your expansion IO that's not gonna fly so instead this CPU has a special low profile heatsink that hangs off of the chip on to the side this is just dumb there are no heat pipes or anything in this it's just a chunk of aluminum with a fan on one side so far though it's worked I mean there's no temperature probe inside the CPU that you can access so it's hard to say if it's overheating or not but one of the things I've done with this system is I have a power cable that allows me to just power the fan at full speed all the time and it's my hope that that will be sufficient all right now let's go ahead and get that CPU cooler installed this is kind of a challenging one because the CPU cooler itself doesn't really stay in place while you're putting it down because it wants to tip over because it's lopsided and you have to put this latch on there to hold it down so this is going to be a two-hand operation here already put it down nice and level ish get the latch on the socket there we go get it down to the other side and there we go installed I actually kind of really like this heatsink I just wish it had heat pipes or something I don't know it just feels like this fans over here completely wasting its effort or the very least all it's doing is cooling the 3d chip down their 2d chip because I'm gonna have Lou do - which let's take a look at installing that now because it's time to run into some more issues all right now this is the kind of problem I would expect more from a build like this now there's absolutely nothing stopping me from putting this voodoo to right here in the first slot which this is a slot open up here which I very much wanted to use for no 64 because it's a Pentium system with voodoo card and all 64 would be a fantastic choice there's just one problem I also wanted the CD drive in the computer because I want to play the actual games I own on it and as I slide the front of the case together which is very difficult to do when you can't see both sides of it the CD drive runs directly into the card in the first slot so whatever is down here has to be a really short card if there is going to be one and since the Voodoo 2 must now be in the top PCI slot that means I can't use the is a slot for a sound card so if I want sound on this I'm gonna need a PCI sound card which leaves me with pretty much one choice a Sound Blaster live now Sound Blaster live isn't my preferred choice but it does make a lot of sense for a Windows 98 build this just being a slightly older system I really wanted an oo 64 in there it makes a lot of sense but I was able to find drivers for this CT 4870 so I was able to get it to working pretty much everywhere I wanted but this did have one slight issue the CD connector for the audio it's too close to the edge of the card as I had to modify it so that the cable doesn't extend over the edge of the PCB at all as we put this together you'll see why but with that modification here to connect to the laptop drive this card works out pretty well unfortunately this doesn't have an optical out so there's no way of using the s/pdif connector for the CD interface but that really doesn't matter so I don't I don't care it works and I'm to me that's the best criteria to go with well ok it works and it fits which let's go ahead and see how this fits in there up against the CD drive now alright slide the card in there we go and this time I'm gonna try and do this from the back so I can see both sides there we go and as this whole front panel goes in we can see it just barely clears it there's only enough space for me to stick my finger there so yes that's pretty much the only card I could get to work in there alright now that we have the sound card in there I'm going to go ahead and run the CD audio cable which comes off of the motherboard and then connects right here and there we go and then I usually just kind of tuck this down because I got to make room for the Voodoo too which is going in next so let's get started on that and I haven't really there we go now the Voodoo too is not too bad to get in here you just got to get it under this bar and then slot it in now both of these cards are not retained with a screw that holds them in over here there is a little notch that you have to slide that part of the PCI connection or bracket over there we go that kind of holds them in place well you actually hold them in with this little bracket that wedges down there and then grabs down on to them because there is just no space in here for there to be screws and that is how you hold the cards in and we're getting really close to having all the pieces in here now it's just space is starting to dry up at this point we can now install the front face alright now the next step is finishing up the front half of the computer that just moves entirely which is hilarious now this is just a standard 1.4 megabyte floppy drive I suspect though I could replace this with an LS 120 Drive the problem is the button now this button I actually 3d printed because when I got this one it was missing that one the only reason I could see that it would be missing because you have to intentionally take off this front faceplate is that it was set up at some point in being used and they didn't want people to be able to put in a floppy disk and take it out so they just pulled the eject button off and then you can do that anymore I could also see it just having been broken because I'll put a disc in there later you'll see that it sticks out a whole lot you can easily share it off but I suspect it was removed instead but the thing that we have to do first here is install a hard drive which goes right here now originally I was gonna try and use 160 gig drive but that didn't work out because of the BIOS problems I even tried using the on track disk manager solution that did not work so I ended up getting this 30 gigabyte Mac store drive to work but I also used this SD card adapter yes SD card adapter was actually so difficult to get working that I had to desolder the 4-pin hard drive size to molex connector because I came up with a really weird configuration now both of these work and I decided I kind of want both in there but I may change my mind later I don't know hard drives actually generate a lot of heat and the only heat output on this whole computer the only fan that does anything is this one for the power supply that has to exhaust through those little tiny holes so I don't know if the fewer heat generating devices the better but for now I'm gonna go with a hard drive in the SD card adapter but there's so little space in there what has to happen is I have to put the SD card adapter in like this and then put the hard drive in on top of it oh yeah the only way the only reason I'm able to do this at all is because this is actually a low profile hard drive - so yeah that's interesting but I'm gonna go ahead and get that installed now now before I put the SD card hard drive adapter thing in there I'm actually going to attach the floppy power connector on this adapter cable actually kind of made this adapter cable too because I wanted floppy power and a molex splitter and the fan connector all in one so i piggybacked the floppy connector off of the pins going into there so it's actually safe if there are no bearer connections exposed and I get everything I wanted so this I will just slide in here and have to kind of push up on that to get it to fit and on there we go this ends up being one of the tightest cable management areas of the whole system because we have to plug in a cable going in there one here one there one there and one there and well you'll see this is a whole problem area on this system this case is so tight I forgot to plug in the CPU fan here so I had to pull out the Voodoo too and the sandblaster yeah thing just it really really sucks to work on I hate it any time I have to reopen this to do something but there we go I have this manually connected and this just spins at max speed all the time okay now this next part it takes a lot of concentration to do so I'm not gonna be talking I do this I'm just gonna fast-forward through it so I'm gonna tell you everything I'm gonna do here first so the cards are currently out because I had to put the floppy cable back in which goes there of course and I'm gonna have to put those back in first then as I slide the front faceplate back in I'm going to have to connect the i/o interface for all the buttons and the LEDs and stuff then I'm gonna have to connect the IDE connector for the laptop drive then as this slides in I'm going to have to plug the IDE cable in for the hard drive and the SD card then as that gets a little bit closer I'm going to have to put in the power supply and then I can put the power supplies cable in then I'll have to plug in the hard drive power to this one because the hard drive actually goes so far up against the power supply that it needs this really short molex power connector instead of the other one because that's too long but this isn't that's how tight this case is then I'll have to plug in the floppy data then floppy power and just it's this whole thing it all has to go in the very particular order so just sit back and enjoy this because it's a total nightmare as a side note though this is the original IDE cable for this system it would just go right here to the harddrive right there this is bad now because I've had to open this computer so many times it does not work anymore there's broken conductors in there instead I'm using a full sized IDE cable but I'm connecting it really weird I'm connecting in the middle and then this one goes to the hard drive and then this one is actually going to wrap all the way around into a really weird configuration like that to plug in to the SD card adapter because this thing was not designed to have two IDE hard drives in here it takes really weird way of doing it but that works so this is gonna be this takes a long time in is really cautious but alright let's go ahead and do it I'll just stop here to point out at this time everything is actually connected but the case still isn't closed yet so I have to cable manage everything out of the way and then get the case tightened into place all right the case is tightened down now all the cables just have to go somewhere so that the lid can slide on and there we go is that not the most nightmarish build you've ever seen as far as how compact everything has to be in there okay there we go that's that's how this computer goes together it is pretty ridiculous but just look at how much functionality it has it is insane but there is there is absolutely no wasted space I mean technically yeah right here there could be more but this card could also be longer and take up that space so it's not like that's totally unaccounted for I mean sure yeah you could put some right here I do actually wonder if somehow there would be a sound card that would go there because there are these outputs right here for sound but I don't see how an unpopulated spot on the PCB for it so there may have been a weird card but this riser piece isn't standard and there's no way that you could just adapt a sound card to fit it so I don't know but jeez man this thing's ridiculous I really wanted the Voodoo to right on top of the CPU instead of the sound blaster so we could share in the benefit of that fan I am tempted to put a couple of blower fans right here that blow over the card and I might do that in a future update to this build but for now I'm not going to worry about it it just really sucks that this is the only exhaust fan actually it's the only intake fan as well these holes new slots right here in the front are the only air intake for this system so yeah this is a really tight probably inadvisable build but the end result here is so sweet that I just can't pass up the opportunity so yeah I probably wouldn't recommend this build but I'm definitely gonna enjoy every last bit of it while I can but let's go ahead and get the last bit of the assembly done there's a little lip hear that you have to hook into the inside and then you can just slide this in and have to push these cables to where they need to be and there we go that's got a sound blaster a voodoo two in a Pentium 2 33 MMX with a floppy drive and a CD drive in it this wasn't my goal when I started building this system but this might actually be the ultimate sleeper PC for this era because it's just so tiny and like absolute max back now for me being the ultimate sleeper PC really wasn't the objective I'm actually a little tired of sleeper pcs because people will see move lost the idea of what they really are this genuinely is a sleeper PC because you would never expect a cash register computer to be a gaming PC especially not of this caliber that is totally period-accurate but anyway I digress what I really wanted this computer for is its size it's so small I like I said am normally a fan of giant computers so this is uncharted territory for me so I ended up seeking out a complete assortment of peripherals for this that match its diminutive stature starting with a monitor this is a 10 inch color vga CRT that's so perfect for this build matter of fact if I take the base of the monitor off this whole computer with that display is less than 12 inches tall and will fit in an IKEA Alex shelf another nice thing about this monitor is that it supports the pass through video power connector on the power supply so all I have to do is turn on the computer and it powers up the CRT as well now since this is a voodoo to set up and that card can only do 3d the 2d card on the motherboard has to be passed through it to the display which means that I'll need a patch cable to connect the motherboard to the GPU and then I can connect the monitor to that I'm connecting the monitor through a VGA splitter so that's not the same cable going into it but very coincidentally the patch cable I have is actually the same plastic molding as this monitors VGA cable so when it's all put together it looks so much more cohesive than I would have ever guessed it could so that takes care of video but what about the mouse and keyboard well the mouse is going to be a Microsoft wheel mouse which is actually one of the smallest ps2 mice I've run across and the keyboard is well it's some random mushy tiny point-of-sale keyboard that I found at a thrift store I'm really not happy with it and I had my eye on a replacement but for the time being it's very small and lastly no gaming computer would be complete without sound but speakers were actually the most difficult thing for me to find so many of them focused on being huge to provide better sound that it was actually quite challenging to find some that were small even not great and small I almost went with this pair of sound blaster speakers because they're definitely fun but they're so large they really steal your attention and make the whole system seem a bit - multimedia focus to me but thankfully at the final hour I found the perfect speakers ones that I actually already had this pair of Cambridge sound work speakers these actually sound fantastic and were my first choice but I was missing the stands for them on my original set but they kind of just look weird sitting flat on the desk the only thing about these though is that they cheat these are just passive speakers they don't have any power going to them at all and they aren't powered by the sound card itself instead they use a giant subwoofer tucked away under the desk for power this ends up making them sound way better than they should for their size and honestly it's kind of perfect for this computer because this whole thing is about having way too much power hidden away so I kind of loved this pairing and with the addition of the speakers I called this computer complete so let's fire it up for the first time definitely not like the 30th time because I've been testing it for the last two weeks yeah that's right [Music] and there we go boot it up and running Windows 98 se now I don't really want to go through the installation process on this again on camera there's nothing that particularly special about it it's just I've done it like seven times now between troubleshooting all of the drive and configuration issues so I've just seen it enough on this system there are a few things to note about installing it on here though despite the BIOS having an option to boot from the CD it absolutely will not for me and I have to use a floppy disk to do it but other than that non-issue there weren't any problems with setting up Windows 98 on this system it was blissfully easy actually because it had drivers for all of the onboard peripherals so I didn't have to hunt down anything with the potential future exception of the network adapter which I haven't been able to get to work and had it take down the whole computer with the windows protection error but I don't need land because this has USB which does install and work fine on here but to get a flash drive working I did have to install the windows 98 USB mass-storage driver which not a problem it all fits on a floppy disk and then makes your life so much easier by being able to use flash drives to transfer over data now one of the only other quirks have had with this computer is the monitor here which did not come with the computer again this monitor is very clearly not designed for any resolution other than 640 by 480 if I apply an 800 by 600 here the whole thing gets super dark because the beam isn't changing intensity for the longer sweeps that it's having to do with more image data and other resolutions beyond 640 by 480 and 800 by 600 it does not like oh I just don't even use those what sucks is that it happens for other lower resolutions too like 512 by 384 on halflife here it is not getting proper horizontal sync and it is making an audible high-pitched noise so yeah all of that though is because this is a dumb analog monitor there is no display circuitry in there really the settings are all adjusted with knobs on the bottom brightness contrast all that good stuff so really there's nothing in here presenting an eID for the operating system to check what resolutions that can support or anything yes oh yeah it has no built-in protection and it will happily run anything you send at it to its own demise now I did have to manually install the voodoo 2 and Sound Blaster live on here which was very easy actually for the Voodoo 2 you just go into the device manager and then manually update the drivers selecting the one you wanted I actually went with the I have my color settings wrong I went with the standard voodoo driver I think it's 3.0 2 instead of the fast-food driver just because I like the splash screen better and and for the sound blaster instead of going that route I actually found some drivers and did the install by going into the audio drivers windows 98 folder thing and I ran the setup here and selected the vxd drivers now there are some pros and cons to this the pros are games work I had some massive issues with driver in the WDM drivers which took a while to figure out and another reinstall of Windows 98 but after getting those set up this is now a fantastic gaming computer and I'm not kidding that a matter of fact let's take a look at a few games on here and just why this particular combination of processor and video card is so good now to say that this system supports a lot of games really feels like underselling it to me it's actually kind of staggering how many games looking through my collection not that seriously have a minimum system requirement of a Pentium 200 or 233 with a 3d accelerator card this is very much a winning combination this time period there are even updates made available for originally software only 3d games to let them use actual 3d accelerator Hardware although there wasn't really a consensus on how to handle this from a consumer standpoint so sometimes you'd get free updates like GL quake and other times you might have to buy an expansion or re-release of a game like interstate 76 s nitro pack and in some cases this could mean that you had to rebuy the whole game all over again just to get support for the hardware you now have and even sometimes updates or re-releases would need just a little bit more powerful hardware like with unreal hair where original unreal runs fine on this computer but unreal gold just doesn't work well but a lot of my personally favorite games run great on here and I have other computers for the ones that don't run well so to me this system is a fun little historical piece for the first generation of 3d Hardware in software plus you can always go older for more games anything a 46 can run this can run just fine but now let's actually try out a game so we're going to install Tarak because how could we not try a game that tells you right on the front of the box that it requires a 3d accelerator card now the bulk of the install process or toric really isn't all that different than any normal game the only real difference that happens for a game from this era is when you go to launch it you need to configure it for the API that makes the most sense for your graphics card and sometimes you even need to choose your graphics card all right so we can go up to video and we can select a different display driver that we want now I'm going to go ahead and use the 3d FX custom driver now this is actually going to be the glide API that 3dfx created for their Vudu cards it uses a subset of OpenGL commands but if we wanted to we could also run some direct3d versions there may actually be performance differences between the two but I haven't really tried them and I tend to use the 3d FX driver and honestly that is reason enough to use the 3d FX driver and there we go this really is a great game for this system this runs incredibly well while still providing a very immersive 3d experience and it just works yeah I know I missed the pistol this is a game that I originally played on the Nintendo 64 which is probably its best-known platformer I'm sure some of you are watching this and thinking I didn't even know that was on PC but this is easily the definitive version for the era it runs fantastic and looks great now some of you may not have experienced software 3d so let's install quake and try out the original version of quake on this machine without having GL quake installed yet alright so here's what the original version of quake looked like you could change the resolution but the options were mmm not great and none of them were particularly high resolution but if we switch to GL quake you have a very different experience [Music] the video options for this are much more interesting don't go up really really high for this system but this is very much a better experience than software 3d can give you and oh man just quick run smooth but that's to be expected since it's not really a new game for this computer pod is another example of a game like quake that received a three effects patch after it was first released thankfully the version on the left here is one of the releases that actually supports 3d effects stuff though in order to get it working I did still have to patch it because pod is really really difficult to get 3dfx running correctly on oh yeah that that sound oh his brings me back man that sound has definitely been my text message notification sound in the past oh you you really don't know how how nice it is to have this game be running it's normal 3d effects mode for me I've been trying to do this for so long and it runs so well okay now there's one more game that I want to check out before we end this because this is getting a bit long now and that's Tony Hawk pro skater to only because I had a rather unusual experience with it when I first launched the game it ran like garbage despite the system requirements being easily met by this computer it turns out that this game has an external GPU selection tool that allows you to choose which 3d card you run the game on and it just so happened to default to the s3 card because again that is technically 3d capable it is just terrible at it and when I set it to the Voodoo - the game ran great from there which was quite a relief because I actually want to play this game again but I should really cut it off there because I could seriously keep going on about how many games I love that run on this computer because this is my favorite era of PC games there's just so many great games that run on this thing and I've been playing a box already has I've been testing this computer and I have tried to thoroughly test it I think that it's not going to have any overheating issues despite the problems I mentioned earlier I've let it run for a few hours with some intense CPU and GPU based games and didn't really run into any issues so I would say that this is probably going to be a fairly stable build from here on out which is really surprising for just how small and compact everything is in there and just again this thing is tiny here it is next to a 120 millimeter fan that's just hilarious now along with it being small the 640 by 480 resolution might seem a bit restrictive to some people but if I put the whole computer next to a 24 inch 1080p monitor you can't again see that it's just tiny but the white square in the center of the monitor there is a one-to-one 640 by 480 image and you can see that it's almost the same size as the CRT display so really the CRTs dpi is pretty good at 640 by 480 now interestingly you could probably build a smaller computer if you started with an S BC or pc/104 stuff but I don't think you would end up with as nice of a package product as this for a complete computer system I really think that this might be about as small as you can go but that's not the most important thing to me the most important thing is that it's a lot of fun to play with and I'm really enjoying it if you enjoyed this video you might want to subscribe because I'll have more like it in the future and if you want to support this channel I am on patreon but for now I hope you guys enjoyed this look at the smallest Pentium computer I can imagine and I'll see you next time
