And just to be sure, I can drop in a full 68030 as long as it's rated for 40MHz or higher right? I'm doing assembly programming and I really want to use Enforcer. I found some authentic CPUs locally from a reseller but want to make sure I won't blow anything up by doing it. This board was expensive and my expertise is in 1990s Mac hardware, not Amiga.
I assume you're replacing a processor without the MMU ("EC") with one that has one, yes?
Make sure your board is socketed and that the processor is removable, GVP made a ton of different accelerators and not all of them were, AFAIR. Other than that you should be good to go. Yes, if it's a 40MHz board you'll want a 40MHz or greater processor. Might be able to overclock it to 50MHz but as you say, why risk it, right? At least until you decide you want to try to eek a little more speed out of it, lol.
Edit: this would probably also be a good time to make sure you have the latest ROM on the board. 4.15 is the latest for most GVP accelerators, unless you can find one of the super-rare "Guru-ROM's". Somebody was selling them on Amibay a few months ago.
