I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong section, since I'm not asking about what hardware to use for a WinXP PC, but rather asking about which games could benefit from one.Ĭpu: AMD Athlon XP-M mobile Barton, probably not clocked very high, perhaps undervolted instead

This is strictly for WinXP-era games (2000-2007), I know that there are older games than that which dont work well on a modern machine, but thats why Ive decided to do a Win98 PC for them. Any game you could think of that could benefit from running on a dedicated WinXP PC, please say if you know of such. Other than that, games that refuse to work on a modern machine, games that dont work as well as they used to, games that have graphical artefacts and stuff, etc.

But I'm not aware if there's any difference in sound quality between hardware EAX and software EAX. The first and obvious question would be that many of those games support EAX, and under WinXP you can have hardware-accelerated EAX with a X-Fi sound card, while under newer operating systems its done in software via ALchemy. I don't have enough time right now to start testing ALL the games from that period to see if any of them cause problems, so I'm asking if you are aware of any that do. Basically, I'm asking if you know of any games from the WinXP period, that would work better on a dedicated WinXP PC rather than trying to play them on a modern machine. So, I have a modern Win 7 gaming PC, and I'm building a retro Win95/98 gaming PC for games older than around 2000-2001, and, I was wondering, is there any point in also building a WinXP retro gaming PC for WinXP-era games (2001-2007 more or less).
