I've been hosting my own LAN parties about every other month for maybe 2-3 years now and I've been thinking about recording them for a little while. I see great benefit in having more content like this on RU-vid. Keep recording these! I'm surprised, inspired, and subscribed.
I started attending lan parties in the beginning of WinXP era. This brought back so many good memories playing through the night to the early hours of the morning. I wont miss lugging around my CRT monitor though. love it
This was fun indeed! I hope that this fun activity spreads like fire. Getting that system, upgrading the hardware and hanging out with friends is always a fun time.
This gives me the same feeling of car shows displaying classic builds... I love it! Started off gaming on a Windows XP machine myself, may have to find that old thing and put a GPU in it to relive the nostalgia.
Nice partyy!!! I have a personal extreme windows xp build, i7 4790k, 980ti 6 gb, win xp 32 bits, 4gb of ram, 500gb ssd and a 750w power supply, it is a dream pc for xp i would like to have back in those days, great party love your channel my friend keep it up👍🏻
That is definitely a bit extreme given that Windows 10 was already out when the 980Ti was released. Even today it's a very capable machine if you add more RAM.
I'm opening a Gaming lounge with 8x Optiplexs 27" moitors rgb kb mouse the works but I think I'll do a Lan party maybe once a week for locals to duke it out!
Awesome, but needs CRTs! Check out the retro LAN party we held this past Fall in Northern California. We're planning on hosting another one in a few months: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vpUP6DFN9sE.html
Love the vibe, the storries and the computers. WinXP probably one of the best eras for retro gaming with so many parts still available for all budgets. Subscribed 🖥️🤗👽💾
Just a single AMD build and even that's not 'pure'? I am disappointed. My XP machine got AMD Athlon64 X2 5200+ (undervolted and overclocked to 2,86 ghz), Asus M2R32-MVP motherboard with AMD 580X chipset (one day I am going to try this Crossfire thingie out), Asus Radeon HD7770, 4GB 800mhz RAM and 128gb SATA SSD. Nothing extreme but machine flies. Nice to see old tech LAN party though. As I am nostalgic to old tech (being 52 years old), You got a new subscriber.
You might have influenced the build I am bringing next. I have a trash picked pure AMD build with Windows 98 SE loaded. Might bring that instead of the Dell 8100 if we do 98 (or I'll bring both because they are cool in their own right!)
My most used XP machine is currently all AMD. My original Phenom 2 965 and motherboard from 2009, plus an AMD 6870. AMD XP video drivers are nice because they have gpu scaling support, and high refresh rate override settings. Just some nice QOL features that help make running old games on new monitors more enjoyable.
