N3 on a 233

5 posts by 3 people · 17 Sep 1999 - 18 Sep 1999

Hey everybody, how good do you think Nascar 3 would run on a Pentium 233mxx, with 64 megs ram, and a 16 meg velocity card? Any Ideas? Also the Pentium 233 is a socket 7 cpu correct? So couldnt I put in an Amd K-6 or something? Thanks, Zack

The minimum requirement stated on the box is a P166 w/ 32mb ram. Maybe someone w/ a similar setup to yours can post their experience with N3. And, yes, I believe P233 is a socket 7 cpu, if my memory is correct. If your motherboard supports it, you can definitely upgrade to a higher speed AMD K6-2 cpu. Ricky

Greetings....... Zack.....this is my current box o' junk.....Pent233mmx, 64Meg ram, SB Live soundcard, and a Voodoo3 3000 AGP videocard. The game runs fine! The game defaulted with all the options turned on, and I haven't noticed any slowdowns, or glitches....this is at 800x600 From reading some of the "advice" here in rec.auto.sim you would think you need a Pentium9 4000 and 784 meg of ram just to use the 'paintshop'...... Hope this helps........ Tony >Hey everybody, how good do you think Nascar 3 would run on a Pentium 233mxx, >with 64 megs ram, and a 16 meg velocity card?

Sorry Zack... I forgot about the processor question....depends on your motherboard. I have an ASUS P5-5ab that is a Super7 board. According to ASUS' webpage, this board will support up to an AMD k-6 3-500. It's nice to know my MB has some life it in yet...hope THIS helps......

Thank you very much for the helpful info! Say where can I get one of those P9 4000s? :-) -Zack
