i5 4570 16 GB DDR3 1600Mhz Windows 10
it handles DOS games like a champ, emulating a Pentium 166 and Voodoo 3 Windows 98 is as good as it gets

Upgraded from i5 4570 /16GB 1600 MHz / HDD / Win 7 to i5-13600K / 32GB RAM / m.2 / Win 11.
P200 + Voodoo 2 was the maximum that I could do with the old hardware, but now this machine runs PII 450 + Voodoo 3 like a charm.
