Not sure how much of the cold 060 is just legend.  

But, was the CPU from China?  It's possible that it's an older mask that has been re-marked.  CPU060 and whichamiga will tell you the revision to be sure.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Some unscrupulous Chinese chip sellers re-mark old/bad chips to better/more-valuable versions.  

@thread

According to the Motorola docs, samples of the last mask/revision were marked XC.  (Edit: I see that D mentioned it above. sorry for the repeat...)

Good to hear everything is correct with the CPU.  Maybe just add a heatsink for some passive cooling.  Perhaps someone with a 2060 can post about the heat.
