Title: Looking to buy an A3640 accelerator card.
Post by: x56h34 on February 11, 2006, 02:40:55 AM
Please send a PM if you've got one for sale. I'd like to get a revision 3.1 or 3.2 in good working condition, with no leaked capacitors or anything like that, if possible. :-) I can pay by PayPal. Thanks.

I have a 3640 listed on ebay its rev.3.0 but its brand new and garenteed to work. Go here  (http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=8761714890&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT) to see the listing.
I have never seen a rev 3.2 Are you sure they exsist?

They exist, I have 2 of them. The board is still silkscreened 3.1 but the PAL at location U209 will be a revision 3 (IE Rev 3 PAL = 3.2, Rev 2 PAL = 3.1).

At least thats the way I remember it. I think most of the A3640's that shipped in A4000T's were version 3.2.

Agreed.  I have had a 3.0, and currently have both a 3.1 and 3.2 (not for sale).  The 3.2 is from an A4000T.

Most 3.2 even seem to have the reversed capacitors fixed, 3.0 and 3.1 definitely need the fix, see http://joj.home.texas.net/amiga/amiga03.html (http://joj.home.texas.net/amiga/amiga03.html) if you don't know what this is about.

Among other things, the 3.2 silkscreen versions say Amiga Technologies rather than Commodore Electronics, Ltd.

@tonyvdb:

Thanks for the offer, but I'm looking specifically for 3.1 or higher revision as I plan to install the card in my A3000D system.

Any of you guys with revs 3.2 willing to sell it? :-)

Jeff,

Are you saying that if the U209 chip has a -03 as a suffix on a 3.1 A3640 it is an upgrade and is considered a Rev. 3.2 A3640?

You want rare A3640 rev 3.2?  400 Euro.  What?  No deal!

@K7HTH

Yes, as I understand it that is true.
