Description: Front view of the A4000-060 XP Accelerator for A4000(T).  This is most likely the "desktop" version of the Quikpak 060 card.  Previously unknown to me, but when my A4000T showed up, this was inside :-)

No I don't believe it is socketed unforunately.  Also the CPU appears to be an LC version which has NO FPU! And thus does not work properly!

Small Edit: it is fully working MMU/FPU/CPU....the memory I originally had wasn't compatible with it.  All is fine now, however the card was never really used by me and is thus in storage.

It is not a GVP branded board, but a Quikpak XP revision 2 "Desktop" edition.  Produced for Quikpak for A4000T, perhaps it's optimized version of the original Quikpak 060 card, which was quite big.  Also should physically fit in A4000.  SCSI is optional.

It's not an A4060 TREX-II rev 2, the photographs of that card show a similar but very different layout.

I cannot find any photo's of a TREX-II rev 1, but I doubt that it is that card either. (It's got Rev 2 on it after all!)

It is perhaps the prototype or successor to the A4060?

Ralph Bable who worked there is still around, you could ask him?

Or talk to GregDonner as he had the jumper settings for that specific card (which seem to have been passed off as the jumper settings for the A4060 for a long time, so they are probably the same!)

Does yours have a socketted oscillator?  Mine does and I can put a 60MHz or higher oscillator on it.  60Mhz works fine in my 4000D but higher it does overheat due to cramped case.

It's perhaps a successor to the A4060 (aka TREX-II).

Minus SCSI.

Never seen one in real life, or a picture, so they are quite RARE.

Can I have permission to use them on BBoAH

Does anyone knows who made this card? Looks a bit like GVP.

I wonder if it takes advantage of EDO RAM like the "real" Quikpak accel.

This card runs Windows XP SP2.  ;)

I have this card, but mine has the SCSI on it.  Got it new from Software Hut 4 years ago or so.  Very nice card, runs at 65MHz stable.

Nothing with "XP" in the title is getting near my A4000 :-P
