68000 CPU Mhz Question
« on: November 04, 2003, 10:42:53 AM »
Hello, i found a 68000p10 10mhz (the amiga with 68000 standar have 68000p8 8mhz) if i quit and replace with this new cpu, my amiga work on 7,14mhz or obtain mhz speed about 9mhz?

Thanks : )

It will work on the Amiga's  original clockspeed (slightly over 7 MHz). No speedgain at all.
Life sucks. Then you die. Then they throw mud in your face. Then you get eaten by worms. Be happy it happens in that order... My Amiga 1200

No, the CPU will only run at the clock speed that is fed through the clock pin. The A500's CPU socket delivers a 7.14MHz clock. (there are modifications to get 14MHz, but these are problematic)
