Extreme Amiga overclocking.

@Red

Please tell me you've overclocked the Voodoo3 card, or something simular that I can transplant onto my Mediator system. :-D

I'm a scary cat so I wouldn't overclock a 060/50 to more then lets say 55-60Mhz but 66Mhz is still within sanity boundries. Clocking it to 70, 75 or even 80 as some report they've done will even with sufficient cooling be puching it and it deffinitly needs to be an MC060 not an XC060 CPU then. I do belive that some MK3 came with a 060/60Mhz CPU and then it's quite possible to clock it to 70-75Mhz but still more then that is pushing it.

@BoingBoss

Every time you get the chance you promote the old fart A2000 and no it's not the highest quality Amiga. About the 040 CPU I'm prepared to agree with you that it is the worst 68K CPU, though the not so common 3.3V version didn't run nearly as hot and much more stable than the 5V version of the CPU.

@Doomy

Lets see now... you claim that "thru-hole" design is higher quality than SMT... care to explain?

If by being big and heavy qualify for being higher quality then a tank is a higherquality car than a ferrari.

Exactly what makes a riserboard a poor quality?

Ever think about all the extra cooling in the A2000 was needed to keep it cool where in the newer Amigas this wasn't needed as better quality chips where used?

Oh and about the 040... you go do your homework. Lol coming and start defend your wrong statement by stating that some chips where marked wrong. So they where marked "wrong" just as you where wrong. Please have a look at the different MC040 versions and you'll see that the V is just what marks a 040 chip as a 3.3V version. All other MC/XC040 chips are 5V.


@adolescent
The MC68040V have FPU and MMU, the MC68EC040V doesn't.

Ow please Doomy... argue for your case if that's what gets it for you but bring real facts not baised bs statements that can so easily be questioned and/or proven wrong.

I will only waste my time on people who are wise enough to listen and who are not argumentative.

I see you surtantly live by that. :roll:

@adolescent

Doomy's wild storys continue... of cause as common sence will tell a 3.3V chip getting 5V would result in failure but not in Doomys world.

[Brian]

You are correct and I was just to post the findings I got from motorola.com... I was simply missled by TBBoAH processor information. :oops:

@BoingBoss

No you're not "messing" with ppl, you are insulting them and mock those who react. You got another chance from the ops to clean up your act and stay on but I see you've slided into your real self rather quickly and I guess it's just a matter of time before you're kicked out of the forum once more.

@Red
So are you going to tell us what it is soon or not? Overclocked the Prom to 66Mhz PCI slots and hacked in a AGP slot?
