My new Blizzard Acc a1200 accelerator
« on: January 13, 2005, 01:46:23 PM »
Hey chaps! Just been given a new Blizz ACC from a friend in work, its a :

BLizzard 1230 IV (TIAUNK) < Whats written on the bottom.

apparently, my mate says its 030/50 ?

Also, this blizz has no fan on the CPU. Is that correct?

Cheers

Kev

Thanks for the advice chaps.

I have an empty socket on this board, looks like its for :

FPU: Optional 68882@50Mhz (PGA)

Any idea where that can be obtained from and if it's worth it?

Cheers
