I am seriously torn between running a Blizzard 1220 card, a Blizzard 030 and an 060 board. The modest board shows the Amiga off with just 4MB fast mem. The 030 with 64MB is both compatible and powerful but it can't run the latest big demoscene productions and the 060 is expensive and impressive but least compatible for classic games. Only room for 1 Amiga. Which should I stick with?
It's a hard question that only you can answer. Right of the bat the B1220 loses to the B1230 in everything but cuteness so that is the easiest to write off. The B1230 vs a 060 board is a much harder decision. The B1230 will excel in compatibility but will not have enough power to run the latest demos and even some later games. A 060 board on the other hand have way more power and makes using the machine much nicer. However it does come with a bit less compatibility, though there are many workarounds these days and if all else fails you can usually turn off the accelerator and run in stock 020 mode to run what isn't compatible with the faster CPU.
I run with 060 CPU in most of my machines and I can't say I feel limited.
