WTB - Apollo 1240
« on: December 03, 2012, 05:31:33 PM »
On the lookout for a 040 or 060 card. Was thinking of buying a ACA 1232 but unsure it will be enough for playing Doom.

Although I've watched a couple of youtube clips but they were all 68030@50Mhz which were okay to me, however the ACA card is 33Mhz but possibly the newer RAM would help?

Most likely be a 040 card in my price range although wanting to part trade with my indivision ecs :-)

Okay so looking at a ACA 1231 w/o MMU or ACA 1230 w/o at the moment. 42Mhz vs 33Mhz / 64MB vs 128MB.

Prices are almost the same, and I don't see a need for an MMU.

ACA 1230/1231 =  9.98 Mips
ACA 1232 = 7.89 Mips
