Amithlon working fine on an Asus AN8-SLI mobo, 7800 GTX PCIe.  AMD X2 4200+ CPU, 2 GB DDR - 4 x 512 MB.  500 watt Antec PSU.

SATA can be a bugger with Amithlon, but not having any issues with this combo with SATA hd's.  500 GB SATA HD, and an IDE CR-RW.  SATA optical drives were a bit on and off, so just used the onboard IDE with no issues.

I have near the same parts in my FreeBSD pfSense machine, but the Asus AN8-SLI prmium board with a AMD X2 4800+ CPU and 4GB of ram, if your setup works mine should to (I think I have a 7800 GTX lying around somewhere).

So thanks, might merge my FreeBSD machine over to one of my LGA 775 boards laying around gathering dust instead! So I can give Amithlon a try (have never tried it) :D

Does Amithlon still have a speed advantage compared to UAE?

Wouldn't UAE running on a modern i7 setup be faster than Amithlon running on the fastest compatible setup (I'm assuming Amithlon does not work on i7 - but I may be mistaken)?

I don't really know how to bench a emulated environment in the best way, but it's pretty god damn fast :)

This is a freshly installed 3.9 on WinUAE/040/JIT/AGA on a fast machine using AIBB and also a test with Phoenix demo:

Once the Amiga part is going, I don't really care what hardware it is running on.

That's fine, some do some don't.

I run both classic hardware and other OS/Software/hardware solutions, mainly as a hobby and it's something I enjoy, truth be told I spend more time on classic hardware but I still try/use most other things.

I dug up the article behind the broken link in your readme file. I have temporarily hosted it here. Som99 if you would put it in your .zip file others could get it easily.

Thank you, did not check the link to be honest. The file is now added to the amithlon archive :) at http://www.som99.se/amithlon, also added outside the rar file for those who already have downloaded it :)
