Hi.
Have a look at http://amiga.resource.cx/photos/photo.pl?id=a3000t

You'll find a VERY high res pic of the A3000T motherboard there, 5432x4092 pixels. That should give you quite a few hints as to where the chips go ;-)

Anyways, best of luck with your build-your-own A3000T kits :-D

regards,
Paul

Cool. So, what gozinta one of those? Desktop parts?
I have an A3000 Desktop that blew the power supply. Need parts? Good mobo, and it also has a WarpEngine '040, but I don't have the jumper line the manual says it needs to make SCSI work on the A3000- I was just using the A3000 on-baord SCSI and enjoying the faster processor.

Hi Voxel! Thanks for your support

First question.
In the mobbo, the IC marked as U103, in all the photos i have found is a free socket, but i my mobbo it has a 74S08N (inverter IIRC),and some other photos, the back of the mobbo has one wire from the upgrade CPU socket pins to somewhere in the mobbo. Mine doesnt!

What up with this?¿

Best Regards

PD:Since I have not agnus from 3k im considering put in the sockeat an A500 agnus. Any problem on this¿?
