Hi all there

After a long waiting period, we'll get a fresh new stock of Classic 520 accelerator boards for your Amiga 500 / Amiga 1000 😉

This will be a limited quantity so don't wait too much for placing your orders !

Get it here : https://www.amedia-computer.com/en/accelerated-boards/311-amiga-500-amiga-1000-classic-520-accelerator-card.html

N.B. : for bank card payments, please contact us here on send a mail at laurent@Amedia-computer.com for getting a payment link 😉

This accelerator board will give you 8MB fast ram, a Compact flash slot, a flash rom of 512KB for copying your legal Kickstart 3.1 in it and use a Workbench 3.1 for example.

No electronic modification is required for using this board, you don't have to open the Amiga case.

Just plug it into the external expansion port and use it 🙂

Many Thanks to the conceptor for managing this new production 🙂

Well it hangs on using Workbench anyway! Works again once cooled down. Works all day with less strenuous apps now with a fan. Guessing the heat has nowhere to go!

Why what? This isn’t SX32, this is SX32 Pro, 50MHz 68030 (and optionally 68882), I got one too and it does get warm, especially with spinning disk installed.

Not really an answer, as 50 Deg to the human hand can feel warm / hot. Still doesn't mean it needs a fan.
My CD32 gets warm as you put it, but its stable and runs fine.

When I said throttle I meant a system wide throttling that Proxima III puts an Amiga through. It's not really the CPU that gets pushed in that game it's the custom chips.The CD32 grill is tiny compared to an A1200 and with a spinning drive an 030 sysyem can get hot enough to cause the HD to shutdown!

Think its time for a new HDD, maybe switch to CF.
Have to say, never heard of, or seen a case where a HDD just shuts down due to heat.
