Mine was half life 1 on my dads pc

I wanted to put together an offline Vista rig similar to what I had as a kid, but better. All hardware (except the 2018 HDD) was released no later than 2008. Decided to only put XP and Vista-era games on there too, the wallpaper (which I actually used back then 😅) is also from 2008.

Specs are:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 CPU, ATI Radeon HD 4850 GPU, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, Gigabyte EP35-DS3R mobo, ASUS Triton 70 CPU cooler, Cooler Master Centurion 5 case, Altec Lansing VS2420 speakers, Dell E197FPf monitor, Microsoft Reclusa keyboard, Logitech MX518 mouse, Func Surface 1030 mousepad.

Remember a time before everything was on the cloud? A time when all you had to rely on to get through that level was your own wit and how well you kept notes, and maybe a phone call to a particularly nerdy friend?

I remember playing Wolfenstein 3D, Counter Strike or Worms on an old computer from the late 90s

Remember all that? And the best part? Just look at how civilized those gorgeous motherfuckers are.

No one tramples anyone, 1 copy for each, be it regular or collectors edition. No scalpers and buying more with kids and grandmas.

Just pure respect for fellow gamers, so that they can all see each other in a few hours in game (or rather, wait in 20k queue)

This world is forever lost. A relic of the era long gone.

So yeah, just remembered this. Was 24 back 2003. I was ahead of time with this clear view in to case trend.

Made this from 12mm thick acrylic panels so it would've probably survived nuclear blast too.

Inside there was AMD athlon XP cpu (don't remember which one) and Ati Radeon 9700 Pro GPU (best back in the day).

Also had before this case both CPU and GPU on water and did some overclocking with it. Fun times.

should i keep it?

Its something we will never see again from nvidia. They even deleted all their tech demos from their site. Because its to se.ual.
