When I started messing around with it I didn't think about getting a test bench. then I thought they would be too niche to easily get. but by the end of the video I looked them up and realised, they were relatively cheap and easy to get. so I'm defiantly ordering one for the future.
Single board Pentium 3?! 😯. mine had a P3 Prescott with a Riva TNT2 32 MB Video Card with onboard audio back in the day... then P4, Geforce 2 GTX, Geforce Ti400.. etc I've said f@#k it and gone back to my Amiga 1200 these days 👍
interesting concept,is the board that this slots into atx standard,if so,a case should be reasonably cheap,i think like a cheapo desktop or mid tower,roy
As far as I'm aware its mostly ATX standard so I could have put it any old random case. Just didn't think any I had looked right for the job, plus they needed to have the space inside for the long card.
@@GouldFishOnGames thinking again im not sure about the standard case now after i posted a reply,the board seems to have more than 7 backplanes? isa a pci combined
Yeah, I was really surprised when I stumbled across them. I don't think anyone else was interested as he was trying to upsell me on other parts that he had. Part of me wishes I'd grabbed a few of the other single board computers that he had.
This kind of SBC is always compelling but they’re also always quirky to get running. I’d love to set one just like this up but I keep looking at what it takes to get one working just right & not getting around to it.
Would it be possible to get an board with PCI, ISA & AGP to work with one of these CPU Boards?? Also would one of these Industrial Boards fit in a "AT" case or do you need a specialised case for them ?? They look like it will work with AT Case probably not ATX ?? :)
I think there are later revisions of PICMG that has AGP. But this was really my first introduction to these industrial computers. So I'm still learning about these things my self.
That could be an option as a card, The difficult part is finding a PCI variant. I see lots of AGP that seem reasonable but some that are marked at PCI show AGP connectors in the pictures.
@@GouldFishOnGames i think your right,i had a quick look and there isnt many now at all,strange they used to be common as muck,i have one knocking around somewhere,i dont mind partign with i dont use it..roy
