Title: Where to order A2000 Socket and 68000?
Post by: XDelusion on September 30, 2011, 11:08:41 PM

I'm in the process of removing the CPU socket from my board.

Where can I order a quality replacement socket and CPU?

I don't know about 68000 sockets, but I found a perfect 68060 socket on Ebay a few months ago.

Oh ya, Ebay... :)

Resolved, thankx, now I just hope this used CPU I'm ordering will work. :)

Yep, that can be a gamble. Why didn't you just try to locate an accelerator?

Because I need a 68000 for the machine to work in the first place. At least that was my logic.

Need a new car first anyhow, then a pair of these:

And then back to Amiga upgrades (which I've already spent more than I should of upon). :)

The german A2000 actually needs the 68000 removing before you can use an accelerator. The B2000 might work without one as well.

Should this one fail, I'll order from you.

Does it matter what model 68000 I use?
